Welcome back, telly addicts, to another brain-teasing edition of the My 70s TV Childhood Quiz! Whether you're a loyal follower who never misses an episode or you've just stumbled upon this nostalgic treasure trove, I'm thrilled to have you join me for this journey back to the golden age of British television.
In this 39th installment, I've crafted 20 carefully curated questions across four entertaining rounds guaranteed to transport you straight back to those cherished evenings spent with the family and in front of the box!
Round One: "Quiz Inquisitors"
Sharpen your pencils for this opening salvo focused on the quiz and game shows that dominated 70s screens, with special attention to those unforgettable hosts who became household names.
Round Two: The Marathon/Fil Rouge Round
My recurring round (named with a nod to the legendary "It's a Knockout") explores the podcast itself and shows I've dissected in previous episodes. Haven't listened to every episode yet? (And honestly, why haven't you?) Fear not—educated guesses are encouraged and often rewarded!
Round Three: "Name That Tune" and "Spin the Wheel" Mashup
The wheel of fate has spoken and landed on 1972! This musical challenge tests whether you can identify five iconic theme tunes from shows that made their UK television debut in that pivotal year. One tune in particular should be unmistakable to any true fan of this podcast!
Round Four: TV Times
We wrap up with a whirlwind tour through general 70s TV trivia—from beloved characters and catchphrases to behind-the-scenes tidbits that only true aficionados might recall. The perfect chance to clinch victory if you're playing competitively!
This week's Bonus Question: In January 1978, ITV screened its first ever "An Audience with..." show. Who was the original host of this now-legendary format? Think you know the answer? Drop me a line at quiz@my70stvchildhood.com with your brilliant deduction!
Were you scoring like a champion or struggling to recall those once-familiar faces and shows? Either way, I'd love to hear your score and which questions instantly transported you back to your childhood living room. Share your results and memories via email or on any of my social platforms below.
Take care
