Family lives 1970s life - Electric Dreams

I have just watched the first 2 episodes of this on iplayer and thought it was great. The next episode is on BBC4 tonight - it seemed like a really interesting series. Would recommend a watch. The general idea is a family lives a life from the 1970s up until the year 2000 (they advance one year per day) and as well as living with the technology of the time they even redecorated their house, which is quite entertaining.

I have STILL got a BBC computer, with disk drive, games, instructions. Do you think its worth anything?

Good job I'm in 2009 though and have a freezer and a microwave!!! I forgot it was dinner time and had to make a quick change to dinner plans!

it's good but the mother really loves a moan.

also the 80s said that women weren't as interested as men in technology which i though was a bit
