Time for Your.... Points of View??

This week, I'm taking inspiration from the BBC's classic viewer feedback show "Points of View" to share some of the wonderful messages you've sent me over the years. It's a celebration of our shared 70s TV memories and the amazing community we've built together.Since starting the podcast in 2020, I've been overwhelmed by the volume and variety of comments from listeners. It seems I'm not the only one for whom brief fragments of sitting watching the box bring back happy memories. This episode is inspired by Barry Took's "Points of View," which returned to BBC screens in 1979 after being axed in 1971 for being "a bit dull."From general reviews praising the podcast for bringing back "so many happy and long forgotten memories" to specific stories about FA Cup Final days and regional ITV variations, your messages have made producing this podcast truly worthwhile. I share memories from listeners like Guy, who watched The Six Million Man with his dad while eating thinly sliced Mars bars, and Stefan, who watched TV with a Siamese cat called Winky above a pub.The episode covers the practicalities of 70s TV watching, from dodgy rolling pictures to catch different ITV regions, to the rituals and games that television inspired. It's a reminder of how television wasn't just entertainment - it was a shared cultural experience that connected families and friends across the country.Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to get in touch. Your feedback and memories are what make this podcast special, and this episode is my way of saying thank you for being part of our 70s TV community.Contact Us:📧 Email: [email protected]📖 Blog: [Link]📘 Facebook:[Link]🐦 X: [Link]📺 YouTube: [Link]Don't forget to like, rate, and review me wherever you get your podcasts.
