My 70's TV Childhood
My 70s TV Childhood is a British nostalgia podcast about growing up with classic television in 1970s Britain.
Hosted by Oliver Colling, each episode revisits the TV shows, theme tunes, adverts, presenters and memories that shaped a generation.
From Rainbow and Grange Hill to Doctor Who and The Good Life , if it was on television in 1970s Britain, we've probably covered it. Now in its 7th season with over 200 episodes, the podcast has built a dedicated community of classic British TV fans who share a love of 70s nostalgia and the golden age of childhood.
