Listening to Richard and Marina on The Rest is Entertainment and Marina mentioned that this advert came out in 1973

A couple of thoughts…

  • I can’t believe it’s that old

  • I don’t know how much TV I remember from 1973, but I certainly remember this

  • I would’ve seen it on a black and white TV. I wonder whether many people any younger than me would know that black and white TV’s were a thing…or that, in the UK, cheaper black and white TV licenses were a thing

  • should someone old enough to remember black and white TV’s really be using the phrase ‘is a thing’?
