The game's question
Piece the clues together and stop as soon as the era comes back.
Young people would not have missed it for anything. The charts, the singers in the studio, the latest records one after another – and everyone talking about it the next day. The programme ‘Top of the Pops’ began on 1 January 1964, from Manchester, and soon moved to Thursday evenings. Which era did it belong to? Circle it together.
- The twenties
- The sixties
- The 2000s
Need a hint?
The very first song on it was ‘I Only Want to Be with You’, by Dusty Springfield. Look again at the year in the story.
