Welcome back to My 70's TV Childhood Quiz, where we test your memories of what was on the box during that memorable decade!
This quiz is an offshoot of the My 70's TV Childhood podcast, which looks back fondly on what it was like to grow up as a child in 1970's Britain and the important role that television played in our lives back then. If you haven't listened, I really recommend you do.
As always, we have 20 questions over 4 rounds. It's just for fun, and the quizmaster's answer is the final one! So settle down with a pen and paper and your favourite beverage!
Here's what we've got lined up for you:
πΊ Round One: Name That Game Show! This round is all about identifying 1970s game shows from clues. From travel-themed shows hosted by Hughie Green to murder mystery games with Edward Woodward and Jon Pertwee, can you name these classic game shows?
πΊ Round Two: Marathon/Fil Rouge! Questions related to topics and personalities we've featured in previous episodes of the My 70's TV Childhood podcast. Let's see how good your memory is about our past discussions, from The Bay City Rollers to The Six Million Dollar Man!
πΊ Round Three: Name That Tune & Spin the Wheel! Our specially constructed wheel of fate has landed on... 1974! Our AI-powered theme tune generator has selected five theme tunes from TV shows first shown in the UK that year. Get your ears ready!
πΊ Round Four: TV Times! Anything goes in this round β questions about various 70s television shows, personalities, and notable programming from the era. From Bod to Carry On Camping!
And of course, we have our Bonus Question for this week: In the controversial sitcom "Love thy Neighbour" what were the names of the two couples who lived next door to each other?
Are you as excited as a school child who has just realised that the Summer holidays have got another three or four weeks to run or are you that child who has exam results coming in August and you already know you've failed and are worrying about what to tell your parents?
Whichever, thank you for listening and if you have enjoyed the quiz, then please tell your friends and also let us know!

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
