    Is it true that Betamax is more reliable and has better picture quality than VHS?

    Just imagine what threads would come up:
    Is BBC 2 just for posh people?
    Is buying or renting better idea for a colour television?
    I think Opportunity Knocks is rigged
    Why are the ITV technicians on strike when they earn so much?
    Do you prefer Granada to ATV?
    and why is there only three channels

    And do you live in an overlap area that lets you watch different itv stations

    I wouldn't get banned so often for sexist remarks and swearing.

    I wish someone would invent a Saturday night TV show set in a fictional village manor where Noel Edmonds gunges people.

    Just seen that Helen Mirren documentary, and that girl in the Nimble advert.
    Lovely girls.
    I wonder if they'll age well?

    There would certainly have been threads about football commentators and motor racing.....

    Do you swap or sell your home made compilation tapes? [Thread deleted by mods due to discussion of illegal activities]

    A friend's dad has bought something called an Apple. Has anyone heard of this? Apparently it is very ugly.

    Why do BBC and ITV broadcast the FA Cup final using separate cameras?
    That Jim'll Fix It guy. What a great guy.
    Mike Yarwood and The Two Ronnies, why are they so $hit.

    Most of the cameras at Wembley are actually side by side but they share the one at the top of the steps up to the Royal box.
    Strange as it may seem there will come a time when both channels do not show the game simultaneously......

    I have just had the misfortune to have to sit through a whole episode of Q. How on earth did the BBC commission a second series.
    Thank goodness there won't be any more, and that apalling Milligan person can disappear into well deserved obscurity.

    BTW - he looked ill. I told you.

    What a load of manufactured, commercial bollocks in the music charts right now. The days of The Beatles are long gone and all this "glam rock" nonsense with their silly haircuts and make-up that appeals to no one over the age of about 14 is in.

    None of this will be remembered in even five years time, whereas you bet Radio 1 will still be playing the likes of Buddy Holly and Elvis Presley in decades to come.

    Loving Saturday TV at the moment. Rolfs Cartoon Time in the afternoon. Then settle down with dinner to watch Jim'll fix it. That Jimmy Savile is so good to the children on the show. And after that time for Its a Knockout. That Stuart Hall is brilliant. Best night on the telly.

    Why does Digital Spy have all those annoying adverts for Sony Walkman and Sinclair C5s?

    Will there ever be a TV set that takes less than 10 seconds to warm up?

    Do you think Radio 1 will ever broadcast for 18 Hours a day?

    Do you think anyone will ever remember these lousy Public Information Films in years to come?
