I have just seen a clip of the "Multi Coloured Swap Shop" and I just thought I'd test myself on the phone number that for about 5 years was on the bottom of the screen and every child knew.


I'm not sure I have got it right - and in the wikipedia age I could obviously check, but it just feels right.


What odd thing can you remember from so so long ago.

Just called it - does not work anymore. I've been trying to build up the courage for 30 year and now I have done it - nothing! how rubbish is that.



I'm glad PGC has remembered the crossing the road rules from Tufty. In Peckham its look right, look left, look in front, look behind, and run........ to the relative safety of ED.....

Multi-Coloured Swap Shop, more commonly known simply as Swap Shop, was a UK children's television programme. It was broadcast on Saturday mornings on BBC1 for 146 episodes in six series between 1976 and 1982. It was ground-breaking in many ways: by being live, sometimes up to three hours in length, and using the phone-in format extensively for the first time on TV.

Sorry, Quids, even as a child I just couldn't stand Chris Tarrent, besides I was (am) a middle-class swot, so it was Swap Shop for me.


PGC, you're right, I'm afraid, you weren't in it. I was an extremely exclusive society of two, but since Mockney has forgotten all about it, I guess it's me who's sounding weird now...

    • Threads that devolve like this should be moved to the Lounge, so the 'comedy' can continue in an appropriate vacuum.
    • How very dare you. Rest assured, if it were intended to be comedy, it would have been funny.
    • I hadn't looked at the actual posts on Instagram. That's sad, then. The shop opening hours are still shown at the top of the page. I  guess changing them wasn't uppermost in her mind under the circumstances.
    • I want to recommend the kitchen fitters Top Marx kitchens. They were excellent from the communication, the planning and the fitting. John did a fantastic job of of fitting and worked around and solved many of the issues we had with Ikea who we purchased from. John gave lots of helpful advice and support. We would definitely use them again for any kitchen work. I have added before and after photos.
