Episode 9 of 10
Radio Wales’s Wynne Evans delves into the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Wales archives of 1978 to bring you some of that year’s TV gold, and shares some of his own family archive.
Join Radio Wales’s Wynne Evans remembering the wet summer of 1978, the start of Radio Wales and Ray Reardon’s World Snooker Championship win.
Highlights include the weird and wonderful dancing potatoes, cowboys in mid-Wales, and outer space with Blake's 7. We meet a seal-hugging police officer, activist Betty Campbell in Tiger Bay and Shakin' Stevens in colour.
