Has 'Threads' got a mention yet? Or those ads voiced by John Hurt. A time of genuine fear.

Looking back I find it quite shocking that they actually made us watch this in secondary school - I was about 13 at the time.
I remember re-watching it a few years ago and it still is a terrifying piece of film.
Imagine Gen Z getting that treatment today.
No, me neither.

Do you remember the red and white triangle on Channel 4.

Put there as a warning that the broadcast contained explicit scenes. Apparently they stopped it because too many people complained that they had wasted their time watching a triangle program which wasn't dodgy at all ...

Sure was before the conventional tin opener came out - it took a age to open a tin of food p.us known toslip & cut your hand badly

Kick start motor bike programme where riders had to navigate an assault course…nearly every episode included them bunny hopping on their back wheel on upturned logs

Maybe just on the cusp of remembrance, but does anyone under 40 remember the days when you could do a back pass to the keeper?

*and the goalie could pick it up
