I remember when there were just two channels - 3 and 11, and you had to tune them in like a manual radio tuner.  One was BBC1, and the other was either BBC2 or ITV, can't be sure now.  I also remember our first 'colour' TV, which was actually a black and white TV, with a three coloured filter hanging over the screen.  The top was blue, then orange then green, and the only program it worked for, was horse racing!

Yes, those were the days Simon.  How I yearn to have them back.

Don't walk behind me, I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me, I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend
