Remember when Rubik Cubes and Cabbage Patch Dolls were the latest fads, Madonna and Michael Jackson ruled the music scene, shoulder pads and big hair were de rigeur and every female fancied Don Johnson from Miami Vice?

It might have been the decade that taste forgot but the 80s will always be fondly remembered for the memorable TV it produced.

In the first of three one off specials, TV’s First Lady Fern Britton is joined by a different guest host to present That’s What I Call Television.

In tonight’s episode, Julian Clary picks his favourite TV shows, moments, ads and themes from TV’s golden age of 1979 -1989. Classic TV moments are recreated as Julian and Fern step back in time to the Good’s kitchen to reunite the stars of The Good Life, Richard Briers and Felicity Kendal.

In another blast from the past, four of the original Crossroads’ cast; Adam and Jill Chance, Miss Diane and Benny check in for one night only at the infamous motel.

Judith Chalmers says‘Wish You Were Here and reveals she clocked up over two million miles while fronting the much loved series; and four of the original Cadbury’s Flake girls relive thier experiences making the infamous chocolate adverts.

It’s samba and sequins all the way as Angela Rippon shows off her moves on Come Dancing and Julian reveals which comedy heroes and heroines have inspired him over the years.

Episodes Two and Three will feature Matthew Kelly and Bradley Walsh as Fern’s co-hosts.

Fern commented: “The 1980s was a rich decade for television and talent. So many marvellous careers were established then by people who are still familiar faces on television today.

“I have many vivid memories of TV shows of that time. They include the wonderful Coronation Street, which I have watched since 1977. I would be absolutely lost without it.”
