Analogue TV

Which outdated technology do you miss the most, and why?

I’m suffering from crappy digital TV signal blues!

Remember these? When a 25” screen was the dogs B….?

When a coat hanger aerial was sufficient and black and white was the norm?

Before flatscreen TVs you got a hernia moving the blessed thing around the house. If you dropped one then often it wasn’t just the TV that broke! Toes, wooden floors, dogs, cats, you name it!

But I still miss the little spot disappearing after the Epilogue before bedtime. The interesting smell “round the back” of the TV—the smell of ozone and fried dust. Somewhere to put grandma’s portrait and a vase of flowers. Those were the days!
