Swapshop or Tiswas??

[Barbara Fan]

for all UK posters of a certain age, what did you prefer??

Swapshop with Noel Edmonds, John Craven, Keith "Cheggers" Chegwin and Maggie Philbin
OR
Tiswas with Chris Tarrent, Sally James, Lenny Henry, Bob Carolgees and "Spit the dog" etc

I was a Swapshop fan to start with but when Tiswas came along had divided loyalties as it was fun and used to flick between the two!! Swapshop became a bit goody goody!
But I did phone in for a prize which was Larry Hagmans belt buckle!! I didn't win!
