Whatever happened to Roland Rat 🐀 I wonder 🤔? 😂 Saying that whatever happened to Wincey Willis. 😆 Classic TV-AM on our screens until December 1992. By January 1st 1993 we had the strange GMTV. 😂

Quite the Christmas Day for ITV. I've still got my videos from when my Dad taped Dumbo, Mickey's Christmas and Alice in Wonderland. I still watch it most Christmases.

Broadcast when Peter Davison was playing Doctor Who. And now we have his perfectly acceptable and natural replacement, Ncuti Gatwa. Good old BBC.

that's the most incredible entrance i've seen on a chat show an early appearance of Mr Bean around 6.00 and a lovely little snippet of Des O'Connor's early life. I always assumed he came from a variety background

That short version of the LWT logo at the end of the clip had only the very occasional airing beyond the London area, but I saw it a couple of times at the start of network LWT programmes in late 1986 and 1987 when they played it out live to take the place of the 'river ident' already on the play-out tapes.

Femi’s optimism was short lived in that from 1987 to 2003 Clause 28 was on the statutes. Now, in 2024, even under Labour, the government is still transphobic.

This might've been the inspiration for The Young Ones' "Nosin' Around" in episode 1. RICK: "The voice of youth?!? They're still wearing flared trousers!"
@80sandretrogubbins252 ай бұрын
There seemed to be lots of those "young adult" programmes around at that time. But I think Nosin' Around owes a lot more to programmes like "Something Else".
