My 70's TV Childhood

The Quiz # 28


Listen Later

Hello, and welcome back to The My 70’s TV Childhood Quiz! This week, I’m bringing you 20 brand new questions across four rounds, all celebrating 1970s television.

In Round One, titled “And Just Before the News...”, we’re diving into those five-minute shows that used to air just before the teatime news on BBC 1 during the 1970s.

Round Two is our “Marathon or Fil Rouge” round, where all the questions are based on topics we’ve covered in previous podcast episodes. If you’re a regular listener, you might have a bit of an advantage here.

For Round Three, we’ve got the fan-favourite “Name That Tune” round. I’ll spin our wheel to pick a random year from the 1970s, and our AI-powered theme tune generator will give us five theme tunes from shows that premiered in that year. Let’s see how many you can guess!

Finally, in Round Four, we have “TV Times”, where I’ll ask you some random trivia questions about anything and everything 1970s television.

Bonus Question: Like many other families, we rented our TV from Radio Rentals for many years. What was the brand name of the television sets provided by the company? Send your answers to [email protected].

Last Week’s Bonus Question: In what month and year did the BBC’s Ceefax teletext service go live? The answer is: September 1974.

Thank you for joining me for another quiz! Whether you aced it or found some stumpers along the way, I hope you’ve enjoyed taking a trip back to the 70s.

I’ll be back next week with another podcast episode, and in two weeks with the next quiz. Don’t forget to like, rate, and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts!
