Re: Did you have a TV when you were a child?
I can't really remember why I was still up to watch Quatermass as my Father was quite strict (nice strict, not nasty strict) I just remember being in the sitting room (with its red flock wallpaper
) and the quatermass music coming on and then me hiding behind settee or a big cushion. Maybe I was on the way to bed? Can't remember what time it was on.

Re: Did you have a TV when you were a child?
Can't remember when we first got our television, but a couple of the neighbours beat us to it. One of them allowed us to go and watch Bill & Ben etc. every day then we had to go home.Remember my Dad bringing the television home-he had bought it from a place that sold very old reconditioned ones and he pushed it all the way home on his bike. Once it had given up the ghost we rented one from Radio Rentals along with a radio.....

Re: Did you have a TV when you were a child?
I think I was about ten or eleven before we got a TV. I remember some of my friends having them and we would always end up at their homes to watch something. The one that sticks in my mind was Car 54 Where Are You..............an American police comedy for children.Anyone else remember it?
We used to listen to the radio a lot, Family Favourites and the Clitheroe Kid and Listen with Mother are things I remember.

Re: Did you have a TV when you were a child?
In my country the first television broadcasts started in 1960. I vaguely remember watching tv in 1961 - but the program watched made no impact.After that I have no remembrance of television before watching "Flipper" in the late sixties. I still remembers the heros name - Luke Halpin. A real dream..
