Rewind the 60's is a TV show on Friday mornings here in the UK. Presented by Sixties star Lulu with various guests, it takes a light-hearted view at the Swinging decade. I stumbled across it yesterday and was amazed to see our very own blog contributor Darth [Rob] being interviewed! Darth/Rob talks evocatively about his memories of the 1969 moon landing. You'll see him sat in front of the big home-made LEM we featured on the blog in the summer! The show is 45 minutes long and Darth talks at several points. Eagle-eyed readers may also spot the cool plastic space toys around the 31 minute mark during some vintage black and white footage of a the toy dept of a Department store. Alas I can't tell which store or which year it is. Click on the show's title at the top of this bloglet. I'm afraid only UK readers will be able to view BBC iPlayer, unless you are IT savvy!
QUIZ: name the two space-age toys shown at 31mins 35secs - name and maker [s] too!
PS. Well done Darth! Great memories!
Nice one Darth. Great story.
