Quiz: Tomorrow's World... future fact or fiction?

Between 1965 and 2003, the BBC’s flagship science programme Tomorrow's World looked at how technology might change the way we live in the future.

Now that the future has arrived, here's a quiz that looks back at a world where mobile phones were mind-blowing and home computers were like something from science fiction.

I got 6/7 …..

5/7. Not bad I suppose (but not good either considering that I watched that programme religiously until January 1984 when I left to live in Rome).
