Before Netflix, before streaming, before even having more than four channels, there was 80s TV—and it was glorious. This week, Brendan, Andy, and Mike take a deep dive into the shows that defined a generation.
We’re talking:
🎭 Soaps & dramas – did your family watch Brookside or Highway to Heaven?
🤣 Comedy classics – from Only Fools and Horses to Blackadder
💡 Game shows – back when prizes were bizarre and presenters were terrifying
🎶 Unforgettable theme tunes – can you still hum the Grange Hill intro?
Plus, we reveal the TV shows we thought were amazing at the time but turned out to be absolute rubbish, and the ones that still hold up today!
Join us for non-stop nostalgia, plenty of laughs, and a few strong opinions! Hit play now and relive the telly that made the 80s truly iconic.
