    80s were great, though going on the pull was always a worry as the press had convinced you that everyone had AIDS....

    The start of Channel 4 and Countdown, the anarchic game show that broke the mould of British television. Rising from the ashes of punk, and under the stewardship of TV bad boy 'Twice Nightly' Whiteley, it dared to go where no teatime show had gone before.
