Take a trip down memory lane

21/05/2008

Remember all those great 80s TV shows your children used to love so much? Well you're not the only one -  Swap Shop, the Saturday morning staple of the late 70s and early 80s, has been named the number 1 kids' TV show of all time.

 

The new poll conducted to celebrate Little Chef's 50th birthday also shows that classics such as Rainbow, featuring those cheeky puppets Zippy, Bungle and George, was also high on the list. Button Moon, SuperTed and Bananaman also got a mention and with all this love for retro-shows it's hardly surprising that 79% of us think that retro-chic is well and truly back in Britain.

 

Keith Chegwin was thrilled to hear that Swap Shop still had a place in the nation's heart and immediately took to the streets to find out what else we Brits remember fondly.

 

In the exclusive video linked below, Keith shares some of his top memories from his 'Swap Shop' days and finds out what we would most like to bring back from the past. So, to get those nostalgic juices flowing open up your Iced Gems, put on some legwarmers, and click below to watch Keith in action!
