As a seasoned cinephile with a soft spot for television nostalgia, I must say that my recent chat with Sally James, the iconic ‘Tiswas’ presenter, was nothing short of a delightful journey down memory lane. The show, a Saturday morning staple from the late 70s to early 80s, was more than just kids’ entertainment; it was a cultural phenomenon that appealed to students and adults alike.
While discussing our film-related articles, we ventured off topic to discuss the widespread fascination with classic television shows. In this regard, we had a fascinating conversation with Sally James, a renowned figure from the iconic TV series ‘Tiswas.’ Naturally, our discussion delved into various aspects of the show, and we reminisced about its notable guests such as Bernard Manning, Michael Palin, and musical acts ranging from Motorhead to Led Zeppelin, Madness, and the dance troupe Pan’s People from Top of the Pops.
For those unfamiliar, Tiswas was a significantly impactful Saturday morning television program for children during the late 1970s to early 1980s. Hosted by Chris Tarrant and Sally James, it also featured Lenny Henry, Bob Carolgees, and John Gorman. Though primarily marketed as a kids’ show, it gained immense popularity among college students and adults due to its unique blend of humor and eclectic guests. We discussed some fascinating anecdotes about the program’s most memorable guests – like Robert Plant – and shared stories, such as the one where they nearly accidentally killed a guest live on air!
Sally was a joy to converse with, brimming with captivating tales about the series. Don’t forget to tune in for more engaging content on our AnyGoodFilms channel; remember to subscribe!
