Ruined TV memories

[stephec]

If you are in your 40s I could ruin your childhood.

I don't really remember watching it when she was on and I'm 46, although I remember Sarah Greene, Caron Keating, and Janet Ellis.

As she's about the same age as my mum though she isn't wearing too badly.

I loved it when I was about 5. When I saw it again as an adult I though it was nothing more than a vehicle to showcase colour television!

The first series was pish.

I thought the first series was by far the best, with the exception of the last episode.

Buck Rogers. What a pile of stinking cheese crap

I'm a heterosexual woman, but even I know that's not what was great about Buck Rogers.....

Just been reading through this thread and having a good chuckle.
My contribution - I just wish they'd do a re-run of Till Death Do Us Part, but I know it'll never happen in today's politically correct environment.

Oh, and as a kid I used to watch Adam Adamant. Anyone remember him?

The Young Ones.Thought it was great at the time,but having saw it again a few years back,what a load of pish.
Not helped by regular appearances of Alexei Sayle

Everybody I knew used to like Monkey back in the day, but even as an 8 or 9 year old I thought it was shite and much prefered The Water Margin. I also really liked The Flashing Blade. I didn't care for The Banana Splits, and I also vaguely remember some TV show called Here Come The Double Deckers, with a fat kid called Doughnut or something. I also used to really like Runaround with Mike Reid, I imagine that was pretty bad.

What I'd really like to re-visit is not television, but the radio. I used to love The Friday Rock Show, from 10 pm - midnight in the late seventies and early eighties. If Black Sabbath or AC/DC were on I was made-up. I'm sure the late Tommy Vance would still be cool, well I hope so. I used to wait with my radio cassette recorder ready to hit record if something good was on, those were the days. Music is so shite now.....

The Saturday afternoon Rock Show with Fluff Freeman was much better.
