Before streaming, before endless channels, and before everyone watched something different, Saturday night TV in the UK was a shared experience. And for much of the 90s, one show dominated that space like no other: Noel's House Party. If you were in on a Saturday evening, chances are you were watching it.

It was appointment viewing – the shows you had to watch because everyone else would be talking about them the next day. From gripping dramas to laugh-out-loud comedies, certain programmes captured the nation’s imagination. Here’s a trip down memory lane to some of the shows that had everyone chatting by morning break or […]

There was a time when technology didn’t update every year. When something new came along, it felt like a genuine leap forward. For many who grew up in the 80s and 90s, certain gadgets weren’t just useful… they felt like the future had arrived. Looking back now, they might seem simple.
