Welcome back to the podcast which celebrates growing up during the 1970's in Britain and the part that TV played in our lives.
This episode looks at Saturday night television and how I and my family watched it together. We share happy memories of The Pink Panther Show, Basil Brush and Bruce Forsyth and The Generation Game and less happy memories of the variety shows that formed part of Saturday's schedules. We are transported from Warrington to California with Starsky and Hutch, remember 3-2-1 and Dusty Bin and consider whether my family was the only one to have the same thing for Saturday supper every single week?
