This week on Remember When…? we're heading back to the days when entertainment didn't need Wi-Fi, batteries or a screen — just a street full of kids and absolutely no concern for health and safety.
We remember summers spent playing Tip the Can, Bulldog and Red Rover, the pure satisfaction of getting the ball to bounce back in Kerbs, and skipping and elastics taking over the playground.
We're talking Fashion Wheels, Tiny Tears vs Baby Born, roller skates, fancy paper (if you know, you KNOW) and, of course, the family game of Monopoly that inevitably ended in a fight.
There are scratched knees, broken bones, wham bars, chewing gum, adventures in the back of the car and the questionable things we did as kids to make a few quid.
Plus, we discover games neither of us remembers at all — Dream Phone and 52 Bonkers. Were these actually a thing?!
It was genuinely one of our favourite episodes to record.
🎧 Press play and come back outside with us — your mam will call you when your dinner's ready.
