Tomorrows World

Back in the 1980s we used to watch a TV show called Tomorrows World. They said in the future we'd be able to see who we are talking to on a phone (we didn't have mobiles). They said we'd be able to order our shopping on a screen (we didn't have internet). What do you remember of the show? Or what inventions do you think we'll be using in 40 years time?

I remember they said we would have televisions so thin we could hang them on the wall like a picture

They said we’d have flying cars by now....

Instead we have signs to tell people how to wash their hands...

I thought that was Co-op or have Tesco started doing it now too?

Oh and I also have the theme tune as an earworm now...

Tesco have been doing for about 2 years, not sure about Co-op. Maybe a local can inform us.

And just for good measure the theme tune and opening titles (which back then were amazing!!)

They said that airport runway lights would be cleaned with walnut shells, and it turns out they were right.
