Re: Sunday Night TV

I only have to hear the theme from Poirot and Jeeves and Wooster to get that horrible 'back to school, tomorrows' Monday' feeling. Urgh!

I had that same feeling too. A new series of Poirot always used to start on the last Sunday of the summer holidays.

Same here, my parents really liked these shows, along with such Sunday night staples as All Creatures Great & small and Bergerac (though the BBC did move them to Saturdays for a few years for some reason).

Re: Sunday Night TV

surprise surprise was another fave.
bullseye as well.

i liked how all 3 teams had a chance even if two where elimanated after the first round.

if the first two did want to bet all they had won on the big prize the others had a chace.

Re: Sunday Night TV

I used to absolutely hate Sunday nights. Firstly because it was bath night and secondly, there being only 3 TV channels, there was that awful period around 6 o'clock where the only programmes on were religious ones and Ski Sunday !! That and the sound of church bells droning on for hours made it my least fave evening of the week.

I wasn't that keen on Song Of Praise, but at least Highway had the novelty of Harry Seacome hamming up his singing & the chance to see one of the smaller ITV companies getting a show networked, complete with logo at the end.

Best things about Sunday night tele........"SOAP","Bilko","Spitting Image" and "The Twilight zone"

Re: Sunday Night TV

I can certainly empathise with you there in regard to Sunday nights evoking hated memories of school the next day. Wasn't so bad when Harry Seacombe's Highway came on, though, as by that time I had well left school!

Re: Sunday Night TV

Yes, indeed. I remember watching Cribb in the summer of 1980. Could never really get into it though.

Re: Sunday Night TV

Another programme I remember from Sunday nights in the 80's was the rather facetious, topical one starring the Reverand Roger Royle. I remember the theme tune had a lot of "Dab-a-dab-a-dabs" in it.

Re: Sunday Night TV

Does anyone remember the Moviedrome series of movies that Alex Cox used to present on Sunday nights on BBC2 ?

Some amazing movies were shown for the first ever time on British TV.

Royle Progess, dab a dab suggests the Kings Singers....

I think Sarah Kennedy had something to do with it, and then she was spotted for Game for a Laugh

Like Frank Topping, Royle was regarded as a 'trendy vicar', but you look back, they werent trendy at all, just in comparison to, say, the Rev Ian Paisley
