One of the best tv series ever made.
It was easy to follow and work out what it was all about by the time it ended
In fact it's subject matter is very relevant today.
Great soundtrack too.

Remember her doing 'LA X' on 'Top Of The Pops', dancing about in a leotard that left nothing to the imagination.
At the end it cuts back to the presenter who says, 'One for the dads, that.'
They'll never allow them to show that again.

No they probably wouldn't, but at least the presenter was telling it how it was. Probably still is reallyOk there was a lot wrong with the olden days, but it's gone too far the other way now, where 'correctness' comes before honesty. And it's not like Ms Stevens and her management didn't know what they were doing
