Saturday TV

This Saturday saw me staying in for the first time in a ages mind you staying in is the new going out. Whilst watching the rubbish we pay for I’ve come to the conclusion that TV programme intos aren’t what they used to be. I spent time reflecting on some of the rich visual stuff I was exposed to when a kid watching Saturday TV. Just check out some of the logos above, absolutely amazing! In stark contrast to the depressing display today, XFactor and Strictly Come Dancing to name a few poor examples, yuk! - Note some of these also had killer soundtracks.
