Hark back to the TV Presentation of the 70s to the 90s. With wobbly film, In Vision announcers, long forgotten programmes, adverts and retro graphics

Sorry to hear that welly wearing Irish comic Jimmy Cricket has died. He spent 4 years with Central ITV including this promo from 1986 for his One hour special RIP Jimmy

Were back at Channel 4 racing, Lets join John McCririck and his views, while Derek Thompson helps the viewers with todays picture puzzle competition, Can you name the horse?

How should we promote the Channel 4 Friday night line up. I know how about Friends? No, Spin city? No. Frasier? Nah. Just highlight the man that likes to sniff trainers who appears on Eurotrash that will get the Friday line up noticed.

Back in 1981, After the BIG event your be fishing for some ITV with more celebrations, with Crossroads, Coronation Street, Saturday Night Fever PG version, then highlights of the Royal Wedding then the comedy film The Knowledge with Nigel Hawthorne and Mick Ford.

The end of Border's Crush A Grape presumably filmed in a theatre in Carlisle. Stu Francis is helped by Geoff Capes and Linda Nolan amongst others, in 1988

Sad to hear of puppeteer Ronnie Le Drew's death. As a tribute here's Ronnie as part of the Rainbow gang getting excited as Zippy, George and Geoffrey join the "Thames Television Children's Club" it's only £2 a year, what a bargain.

Feeling lost and out of in the cold? Were you better beware of the moon as there An American Werewolf in London on Moviedrome, its was only £2.80 to watch a film in 1981.

Let join Charlotte Hindle, Gilbert the Alien and Gaz Top with a pony tail on the Newquay beach for the last few mins of Get Fresh in 1987, nice to see the kids holding the TSW endboard.

Its Hot the sun out so it must be time for Summer time special1 On BBC one in 1982 with your host Frankie Howerd and a rather jolly opening number.

Jimmy Tarbuck hosts a special episode of Winner Takes All on World Cup Final day 1986 with Alan Ball, Mick Channon, George Cohen and Denis Law as contestants

In 1993 BBC Summer morning was the only way to Stay cool, or you might lose control. You better shape up with Andi Peters, Zoe ball, Philippa Forrester and Toby Anstis with all your favourites and lassie..
