  • Tiswas Then and Now takes you back to the glory days of 70s/80s Saturday morning television. Take a good nostalgic wallow as we remember the ground-breaking, anarchic and totally nuts Tiswas and take a look at the presenting team as they were then and as they are now. This is what they want!!

    (I'm finding it hard to believe that Bob Carolgees was only on for two years- he left such a lasting impression that it seemed like he was on the show for *much* longer!)

    Used to go out on the piss Friday night and come Saturday morning watch Multi Coloured Swap Shop at 9 .30 on B.B.C. 1 and switch over to Tiswas on I.T. V at 10 oclock because it was crazier and funnier . Nearly always watched it with a hangover from the night before . Happy days the 70's .

Anything outside of their media tech is irrelevant. We used to play 40 saves all. Hide n seek. Make dens and dams in the streams. Make tree houses. Play in mud and climb trees. Go bike riding and collect nuts and apples and play on computer games on a rainy day and even air guns and catapults. Marbles ... Conkers. Bows n arrows.... The lists almost endless . That's what I remember when I look back. Wtf will they have to look back at....feck all but media tech.

    If ITV ever make a series about how TISWAS was created, the actor Jonny McPherson (Emmerdale), should play Peter Tomlinson, as he looks & sounds like him. The way he says, "Compost corner", in the episode broadcast on November 4th 2021, sounded just like a TISWAS moment!
