When I started reading this thread all if could think was OMG Blake's Seven, and the fit one in it - he was the sarrcy one, can't remember his name but phwoaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

And I used to love Sapphire and Steel.

Then I read the rest of the thread and I'm sat here thinking   WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

All I can remember from my younger days (and I'm 36 now) is Donkey Kong, Space Invaders and PacMan.

Did I lose some years?
