Classic tee.vee....
Everyone knows Christmas is a great time for classic movies and television. And lets face it Christmas probably wouldn't be the same with out an Only Fools and Horses special.
So, If you are or have a TV Addict in your life we probably have the perfect gift/treat.
New or old, everyones has their favourite TV Show. Whether you woke up excited by Saved by the Bell, couldn't wait for Wacaday or loved the lunchtime activity down on Sesame Street we have t-shirts that will delight any TV addicts stocking this Christmas.
The Good Old TV Times!
Led on your belly with head on hands, in front of a faux wooden box on top an oak cabinet, eyes as wide as saucers glued awaiting the eveningâs entertainment! Four channels is all we had and even so weâd only watch two of them.
Being the youngest, the family hierarchy dictates that you be the remote control. Dad would direct you to the channel to switch as you stodgily walk on knees to the big brown box. After a while youâd try and tempt fate by switching channels whilst dad was sleeping only to hear a muffled but firm "I was watching that"! Then youâd rush back to your spot on the sofa trying whole heartedly to blame your older sister only to get the evil eye off both off them.
Sure we were telly addicts but who wasn't?
Straight home from school the big brown box would be glowing with luminescent joy and weâd watch, Thundercats, Masters of the Universe, Inspector Gadget, Danger Mouse, Bugs Bunny on Rolf's Cartoon Club, Happy Days, The Fresh Prince of Bel Air and just before bedtime Only Fools and Horses and Cheers.
The theme music to Poirot and Lovejoy still send shivers down my spine and give me that queasy âI have school tomorrowâ feeling and have most likely forgotten any homework I had and do I have P.E?
On the bright side hereâs a few T.V. themes to get you through the day so you don't have to think about school and hey we're grownups now and we never have to go to school ever again :-)
