It doesn't seem any different to Avon or Servie's attitude to murder

Avon or Servalan might execute, but they don't murder. There's a difference.

It was 1973?

Are you a mass murderer M'Virn?

I forgot that in this 1st episode you don't get the great music tracks as we get later.

Now that is proper 1970s wallpaper! We used to have some like that - had it until the late 1980s when it was never longer in vogue!

We've had Life On Mars - it doesn't need anything else after that

My Open University programmes were never like that.

Didn't 70s style come back onto fashion a short while ago?

1973 when there was colour TV, but virtually no-one had them! We didn't get one until the late 1970s.

You mean with a man hitting the telly who is in bupa?

I think this is the last original idea ever shown on bbc tv

Pot black with Ray Reardon in the 70s ... you can still tell the red on b n w tellies

You're forgetting the Great British Sewing Bee.

So this is all a load of propaganda about how policing and forensic methods have improved since the '70's?

Ah yes, it reminds viewers of the casual sexism of the 1970s. Maybe that's one reason for the warning for modern 2020 viewers!
