Relive the Golden Age of 1970s TV with this Special | UK News

And our new Memory Lane 1970s TV particular version brings you the best from what was a sensible decade of leisure. You can choose up a copy at taking part retailers across the UK or buy online right here.

It was a period of beautiful sitcoms, none better than Fawlty Towers as Basil, Sybil, Polly and Manuel brought about chaos in a Torquay resort!

On the Buses, Dad’s Army, Are You Being Served?, It Ain’t Half Hot Mum, Porridge…the listing of genius comedy goes on.

Talking of genius, there have been loads of gentle leisure legends in the 70s, from Morecambe and Wise, the Two Ronnies and Tommy Cooper to the versatile Bruce Forsyth, Bob Monkhouse and Mike Yarwood.

We have been handled to some of the best drama, as Coronation Street continued to push boundaries, while The Sweeney and The Professionals added loads of grit to our nightly viewing as detective exhibits from right here and America had us gripped.

We noticed some cracking recreation exhibits – 3-2-1, It’s A Knockout, Sale of the Century, Blankety Blank and the Generation Game to identify but a few.

Sci-fi was a growing style following the Moon landings, with Star Trek, Dr Who, Wonder Woman and Space: 1999 among the hits.

And then there’s the basic children’ TV! Who can overlook John Noakes on Blue Peter, the emergence of Grange Hill and a sure scarecrow called Worzel?

With a look back at the music exhibits of the decade, chat exhibits, sport, news and those catchy adverts – all because the woman loves Milk Tray – our particular version will convey back reminiscences galore! The Memory Lane 1970s TV Specal is on sale now at taking part retailers, or buy online right here. Online postage and packaging prices apply.
