I think that in 1982 Tony Bastable was only allowed to advertise Talbot cars because Thames's "Drive In" had ended the previous year.

Birdseye Beef Burgers were part of the Steakhouse family from 1983.

This is not a request, but it would have been nice to watch some "true" vintage WTPS-ery.

Apparently John Thaw wasn't too keen on "Hill Street Blues" when "Did You See..?" discussed it.
