The 70's were weird! We were just out of the wild 60's but our parents were still products of the very sensible post war years...as a result we were all totally mixed-up kids!! Have a look at some seventies news! And have a look at personalities to see who was famous, and marvel at how they were once young! |

It was apparently a golden age of television as colour TV settled in! And the dawn of Monty Python caused us all to call each other Bruce and recite TV scripts word for word....it is written that wherever two or more people are gathered in a room Monty Python shall be spoken!! |
| The music went from Motown and Reggae in the
very early 70's and then went haywire as Glam Rock hit the charts. Then
in the middle of the decade we suddenly had punk. And all through the
seventies some of the best heavy rock bands appeared - Genesis, Pink
Floyd, Led Zeppelin and Queen.
And the films we used to watch - a lot of science fiction as this was the era of men on the moon. And James Bond of course as this was still the cold war and places like Russia really were behind the Iron curtain. |

Reading material consisted mostly of Superman and Marvel Comics and of course TV21 and a host of other TV related material. |
| And the fashions - denim, flares, South Sea Bubble, Budgie Jackets, Afro haircuts, Brutus, Levi, Grandad vests, purple velvet loons, Platform shoes, trenchcoats, afghans, hippies, skinheads, suedeheads...we were just so cool! |  |
