The decade that style forgot

[TVC]

You know how we take the micky out of the 1970s, with their ponytails, beards, and stupid jumpers. Well...

just wait 30 years and we can do it again.

Whoa there, nobody is mocking JJ Burnell. I'm thinking more of Brotherhood of man, and the Joy of Sex models. I never saw Hugh Cornwell in a comfortable knit.

Oh no, the 80s was worse, believe me.

Joy of Sex- I wore a beard for years after that one. Chris Foss and Charles Raymond did a fine job there.

Oh dear. I forgot about the chunky knitwear. You are absolutely right @The Velvet Curtain. Has he just got out of the bath or something?

You could be right. Big Hair, big shoulders.

Your wish is my command....

Beards are good. The other day a prisoner told me I looked like Charles Bronson.

I'm doing an OU course and get the benefit of seeing 1970s fashion every time we have a tutorial.

Good point! The BBC2 late night OU programmes were a rich hunting ground for bad trousers, dodgy moustaches and Fair Isle sweaters.

G.I. Joe is somewhat less than up to regs with that beard, but we'll allow for the idea that he may have been on remote duty with the Adventure Team (what a wussy name for a unit) at that point, and shaved on return to base.
