Not every edition of Tiswas is detailed here, but we've made a big
start thanks to Tiswas fan Dave Clark, and a collection of TV Times at
Birmingham Central Libary. We're concentrating on the early years at first,
they are the rarest of all. 1974 and most of 1975 are detailed. All of
1977 has been detailed also, and that is a landmark year for Tiswas, as
it saw the presenting team changed radically to include Sally James and
drop some of the older faces, plus the first shows to be broadcast to
places other than the midlands!

Random Tiswas quote:
"I remember opening a package one day and there was this raunchy pair of
knickers in there with a letter saying 'If you wear your black boots on Saturday then I'll know you'll be
wearing these.' Ha ha ha! I never wore the boots after that!" - Sally James, 1999. Random Tiswas fact:
The working title for 'O.T.T.' (Chris Tarrant's idea of an adult Tiswas) was
'The Big Tis'.
