25 out of 30 not bad

[@northcountrygirl1980]

Great quiz and presentation. I got 28/30, not too shabby considering I was born in 1980 and never watch TV! 😂

[@humayunkabir9279]

I guessed 13 out of 30 .poor show . However thanks for taking me back to the good old memories of my younger days I am 67 and watched programs like professionals, saint tops of the pops.. They don't make them any more .Great old memories now we can only cherish them

[@CadsQuizzes]

@Humayun Kabir Good score...there is some obscure one's in the mix. Glad i could bring back some good memories of when TV was good. Thanks for playing. Lots more quizzes coming soon.

[@glennsanders2962]

Taking part in this quiz brought back many memories from my past. Top stuff

[@julianalstin7245]

Some great tunes in there and a real doorway to better times. I missed a few later on but managed 24.... so not so bad.

[@TheRowlandstone73]

As a 50 year old, I'm quite impressed with my score of 21/30! Space 1999 is the earliest one that I should've got, (but didn't). Just that 10 second snippet of The Professionals gave me goosebumps! What a tune. Love the Randall & Hopkirk: Deceased theme too.

[@scottythedawg]

not bad. Tellyaddicts, brookside, dickson of dock green, boys from the blackstuff were my failures.

[@TheRowlandstone73]

@@scottythedawg 26/30 is damn good going, mate. Yeah, I didn't get Telly Addicts, Dickson of Dock Green or Boys from The Black Stuff either.. Although I should've got Telly Addicts - I loved watching that in my early teens.

[@scottythedawg]

@@TheRowlandstone73 yeah same, it is kinda ironic lol

[@FishpondsLady]

A rather sad 15! But a great quiz, thanks.

[@CadsQuizzes]

@Amy Quinn Great effort...there is a few hard one's in the mix. Thanks for playing, really appreciate the feedback.

[@MsMamabo]

A little cluster of older ones I didn’t get….Dixon of Dock Green, Randall & Hopkirk were total mysteries. Just couldn’t place Brookside ! Great quiz!!

[@CadsQuizzes]

@MsMamabo There is a few hard theme's in the mix like the one's you said but Brookside..come on😂 i'm only joking it's easy confused with other shows. Thanks for playing...more quizzes coming soon.

[@jmcallion2071]

World in action theme could be heard downstairs while I was in bed aged 5 and it was daylight during the summer!

[@BenDelaney619]

Being from Ireland and not heard of a lot of them TV Shows I manged to get about 10

[@Blondie101010100]

Same here!

[@wonhung]

I don't watch soaps, or game shows, but I got Corrie & Blockbusters all the rest were a doddle. 26/30

[@NotSuitableForMum]

Only13 this time. That was a toughie.

[@ianhorsley5842]

They always said I watched too much TV, I got 26 out of 30, and should have known two of the ones I missed

[@fran23324]

Not bad got 21/30!

[@KF-cx8bm]

That was good fun, thank you

[@CadsQuizzes]

@KF-cx8bm Thanks for playing. Lots more quizzes to come.

[@annglaister]

Brilliant ❤loved this quiz

[@CadsQuizzes]

@Ann Glaister Thank you very much❤ Lots more quizzes to come soon.

[@stevedavis6879]

I'm here in 2024, how many did you get? Hahaha

[@stevedavis6879]

22 me , bit sad but hey ho 😂

[@therandomthink]

You got me with Emmerdale... I said Emmerdale Farm, which it was right up until 1989.

[@ritar5417]

You can still count that as correct I think, it's the same tune!

[@linwoodsly7101]

The only British TV shows remember watching regularly is ..Are U being Served ;…Dr Who …The Avengers ,Monty Python..;and Master Piece Theater which I believe was a USA production but would have international drama suspense comedy and muster shows 😢😢😂❤

[@witterth]

great stuff!!

[@CadsQuizzes]

@John Walsh Cheers John. Thanks for playing pal, appreciated🍻

[@Theagchm]

I am chuffed with myself, 24/30. Got some difficult ones, Krypton factor was dragged screaming and kicking from somewhere in my head and World in Action - ok, I did pause it but got it fairly quickly so I am claiming it! I do have to admit, that's twice I have missed Dixon of dock green in your quizzes 😞.

[@CadsQuizzes]

Thanks for playing!

[@iainrichardson4495]

I would like to say i got about 23, but alas it was actually 18...great quiz really enjoyed it...thanks

[@derwennsrobinson5384]

CORONATION STREET

[@derekriley5177]

22 but disappointed not to get more considering my favourite period of TV watching.

[@CadsQuizzes]

@Derek Riley That's a great score👏 Some difficult one's towards the end pal. Thanks for playing...more quizzes coming soon.

[@sparky4878]

Playing this I learnt Hans Zimmer composed the Going for Gold theme tune. Hans Zimmer!

[@darlostag]

19. Anything from pre-1980 I struggled with.

[@peterkelly1515]

I got 4. I hadn’t a notion and then when the answer was shown I still hadn’t heard of the majority of them 😂. Difficulty should be very hard 😂

[@RowanMorrell]

I only got nine. 😞 However, I live in New Zealand, and we didn't get a lot of those shows here. The ones I did get were shows that did make it here, and were popular, such as Minder, Coronation Street, All Creatures Great and Small, Antiques Roadshow, The Bill and Casualty. We had our own version of The Krypton Factor in the 1980s, but it used the same theme music as the British show. Another one I managed to get was The Avengers. I didn't get The Professionals, but we did have it here I think. I was just a bit too young for it.

[@davidmarchant9386]

Only 14 should of got 3 or 4 others but kinda happy with the amount I got right

[@mistie710]

Dropped a few after NO. 10 but ended up at 21/30 in all. The Dixon of Dock Green sounded vaguely familiar but I seem to remember it as being whistled and in a completely different beat (sic). Mistook The Avengers for the Persuaders for some reason, though I later remembered that The Persuaders had a vocal theme. All the others were a blank!

[@CadsQuizzes]

@mistie710 Your right, i remember the whistling version of The Dixon of Dock Green as well but i think there was a few different versions of it including a singing version. Easy to mistake The Avengers and The Persuaders themes, they are pretty similar to me anyways. Great score💯👏 thanks for playing...more quizzes coming soon.

[@Theagchm]

Yup, got Persuaders and Avengers mixed up too.

[@user-pb54]

Not the Top of the Pops theme I knew - must have been a later incarnation. The classic TOTP was “Stairway to Heaven.”

[@therealobanir]

Do you mean Whole Lotta Love?

[@cornishcat11]

@@therealobanir correct

[@andynoden7696]

Got all, but stuggled with two of them.

[@CadsQuizzes]

[@MisterGee1968]

Just 15 for me - had a few mental blocks !! Mistook Casualty for Holby City [I never watched either !!]

[@CadsQuizzes]

Thanks for playing!

[@madabbafan]

21, not too bad some were from before I was born (but got about half of these due to repeats etc)

[@jmcallion2071]

Best theme has to be space 1999

[@emmaharmston272]

11 out of 30

[@AndrewHalliwell]

Krypton factor and boots from the black stuff were the only ones i didn't get, and a few more seconds of Gordon Burnes.and i would've got that too, so, 99.5/100

[@AndrewHalliwell]

That should've read as boys, not boots btw, bloody swipe keyboards.

[@CadsQuizzes]

@Andrew Halliwell Tremendous score! 28 out of 30 has to be in the Top 3. Thanks for playing, much appreciated.

[@rachellunamcowan8275]

Did quite well, didn't get dixon of dock green though

[@glenjones6980]

I had to think pretty hard for a few of those and a couple I just hadn't any recollection of so 25/30 was a bit of a surprise tbf.

[@CadsQuizzes]

Thanks for playing!

[@idhcustomtoys]

What was the theme Alan Partridge was listening to in his Lexus whilst at Lynn's mother's grave? I thought it was the Saint.

[@davidsmith9826]

All I will say is that I watched too much TV when I was younger

[@CadsQuizzes]

@David Smith 😂I'm the same pal.

I managed 27/30, but the real challenge was to name the composer(s). That was 22/30.

[@CadsQuizzes]

That is a proper challenge, not to many people know the composers. Thanks for playing!

[@alanshand829]

18/30 , and I'd heard the ones i'd missed up until upstairs downstairs. Sone of these I only knew because of (Spoiler) Telly Addicts

[@StevieRostron]

Professionals
