Just hearing the That’s Life theme tune reminds everyone who was a kid in the 80s that it’s Sunday night and you’ve got school in the morning. But it really was good, and the street interviews are now a brilliant bit of social history. RIP Esther Rantzen. She was fantastic.

Rest in peace dear Dame Esther Rantzen thankyou for those odd shaped vegetables, sausages and bat stew amongst so many delights

I have very warm memories of watching That's Life in my PJs with my brothers and mum and dad when I was about 9 or 10. Always loved it but the only issue was I had to unplug my ZX Spectrum from the TV so the family could watch it; I came to terms with that sacrifice though.

Thanks for bringing back some awful memories of Sunday evenings- Back to school monday morning.

The story about the Dad losing his three beautiful little children in a car accident was heartbreaking. 😭😭😭😭

So funny (and sad) that at that time Westminster Council was offended by the Cobblers sign ;-)

Brilliant memories of a show I loved. Would end a great weekend before school.

15 years later, I worked with Gavin Campbell on The Money Channel. For me, That's Life was 1970s viewing and I'd no idea Mollie Sugden became a feature. Cyril Fletcher departed in 1981.

Great old stuff. The funny way round the Sunday trading laws was a blast from the past. I'd forgotten all about that. I wasn't yet 9 when this was broadcast.

I'd forgotten when That's Life went all LWT. Over-lit, over-processed and over-acted ;-) Thanks for the upload!

That's Life was a great fun program, please can you supply more classic episodes in full and does anybody have the very first program back in 1973 would love to see it. Than you xx
