My own blast from the past
So tonight on Challenge TV, two of the greatest children's shows ever are being shown from the beginning.
Both were shows that every 80's child in the UK wanted to be on.
Funhouse http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fun_House_(UK_game_show) and Knightmare http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knightmare
These two shows were on when satellite TV was practically unheard of in the UK. In fact, we only had four TV channels when these two shows were first broadcast.
Knightmare was probably the most popular children's show ever with 5 million viewers at it's height - this was around 85% of the children's viewing audience. This show was so popular than an online petition to have it released on DVD reached over 100k signatures.
Watch and relieve your childhood. I know I will be.
