Kung Fu...inspired many of us (including me) to take up Martial Arts...as well as impersonating Master Po by putting 2p coins in our eye sockets and saying "glasshopper"...

Grandstand 1980


See how many sports the BBC used to do and good old presenter Des 'Mr Smooth' Lynam.

Not a patch on Grandstand but for equality here is World of Sport with Dickie Davies (funny change of music midway!)

The Big Match-now this is something I've never heard before-the full version music 1970's. It is called 'La Soiree' by David Ordini.


See if you can recognise any of the footballers, I spotted quite a few.

Johnny Pearson the conductor of the orchestra on Top of the Pops wrote this memorable theme-who amongst us didn't sit down to watch avidly SUPERSTARS-someone mentioned it earlier in this thread-well here you go, just for you, the theme tune.


Introduced by David Vine and Ron Pickering-probably two of the best presenters around.

If you thought only having a choice of 3 TV channels sounds bad, well from 10th August to 24th October 1979, 3 became 2 as ITV went on strike..this was what you saw when you put ITV on...



Might want to delete those 2 posts Greeny Smile
