The Sweeney Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy Brideshead Revisited Hmm. Weren't three of those on ITV? Two made by Thames before its demise at the hands of a vindictive Mrs Thatcher after Death On The Rock. That is something else we had in the 70s: investigative documentary series. |

Itsaknockout, I wish they would repeat the International Finals.

Alias Smith And Jones with Ben Murphy and Pete Duel is a very good shout Capt F. The ultimate must watch series from that era though for me has to be Roots.

Ah Roots , ****a Kinte and Chicken George. I also enjoyed another Mini Series about the Holocaust (with Meryl Streep i thnk)can't remember its name but late 70's early 80's. As a history buff i didn't know much about this period as i wasn't taught it in school, i found it fascinating if a horrific.
I also was forced to watch ( my Father loved them) The Waltons and Dallas ( before Dallas became big time) had the 8:10 slot on BBC 2 , with the hope of running into Not The Nine O' Clock News. Then he would realise and switch over to BBC 1 for the Nine O'Clock News. |

MB's POtty Time - classic
 might be a bit later than the 70s but who remembers a mini series about a lad who finds out his mum was a gorilla? Charles Dance was in it iirc. Very much ahead of its time and deserves to be remade imo. |

 No I haven't Jayco, Brian Jacks 'king of the dips' was not my favourite Superstar, it was a great series though.I knew Andy Ripley, he played for my local team Rosslyn Park and England of course, my rugby coach at the time was also there, I played cricket with him as well. He was a true Corinthian and won U.K. and International Superstars, he was a bit of a hero of mine if truth be told. A great man he was. |
