The Bakery Bears Radio Show

Episode 57 ’Which decade had the best TV shows?’

Listen Later

Welcome to the 'Bakery Bears Radio Show' Episode 57

Our sixteen year old daughter, Bryony, suggested to us a few weeks ago that we should do a Radio Show on why TV shows were better in the 1980's. That got us thinking, was that statement actually correct, 'Were TV shows better in the 1980's?' In this show we try and answer it. Along the way we talk about some of our favourite TV shows and how TV has changed over the last thirty years. We conclude the show with giving you our answer.
