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.
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: Postgate Posers! All the questions are about the legendary animator Oliver Postgate who was responsible for so many marvellous TV shows. From Smallfilms to Bagpuss, can you remember these magical creations?
📺 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. From Superstars to Record Breakers, test your podcast knowledge!
📺 Round Three: Name That Tune & Spin the Wheel! Our specially constructed wheel of fate has landed on... 1970! That's an incredible 55 years ago! 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 The Pink Panther Show to Doctor Who!
And of course, we have our Bonus Question for this week: Which 1966 film was banned from being aired on UK TV due to concerns about children copying dangerous behaviour until 1972?
So how have you got on? Are you "On top of the world looking down on creation" as the Carpenters once sang or are you "Way on down" as Elvis crooned?
Whichever, we do hope you've enjoyed our quiz. And if you have enjoyed it, then do tell your friends and it would also mean a lot to us if you liked, rated and reviewed us wherever you get your podcasts.

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.
