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:
📺 Round One: Car as the Star! This round focuses on those iconic vehicles that became almost characters in their own right. From Doctor Who's yellow car to the General Lee, how well do you remember these famous TV automobiles?
📺 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. We'll be testing your memory on The Waltons, The Banana Splits, Harlem Globetrotters, Thunderbirds, and Bagpuss!
📺 Round Three: Name That Tune & Spin the Wheel! Our specially constructed wheel of fate has landed on... 1975! 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!
📺 Round Four: TV Times! Anything goes in this round – questions about various 70s television shows, personalities, and notable programming from the era, from Edward the Seventh to Val Doonican's famous outerwear!.
And of course, we have our Bonus Question for this week: What was the introductory sequence for London Weekend Television meant to signify?
Are you bouncing off the ceiling with joy or flat on your face with misery? Whichever, I hope you've enjoyed it. Share your results on social media, comment on our blog, or send me an email to let me know.
