Episode 40 sees us remembering the television landscape of 1979 with the help of Martin, Warren, Nick, Jo and Paul. We return to school to look at the start of Season Two of 'Grange Hill' then tell the story behind the ITV Strike. 'Dick Turpin' provides us with adventure in the 18th century when he meets 'Swiftnick', then Tom Baker's Doctor faces a rematch with Davros in 'Destiny Of The Daleks'. Sunday evenings showcase 'The Legend Of King Arthur' and Eddie 'Shoestring' becomes a 'Private Ear' for Radio West. 'Doctor Who' achieves record viewing figures when it visits the 'City Of Death' and we round off with a trip to Scatterbrook Farm where 'Worzel Gummidge' is attempting to make 'A Home Fit For Scarecrows'... Episode 40 of the 'Round The Archives' podcast is brought to you by Lisa Parker, Andrew Trowbridge, Martin Holmes, Warren Cummings, Nick Goodman, Jo Bunsell and Paul Chandler.
