Remember watching one in the late 70’s, just didn’t like sci-fi stuff
You must of gone to the cinema to watch the first film because Star Wars was out in 77 and films back then didn't get to the normal tv for years not even 79!
Just checked..
The first UK terrestrial TV showing of the 1977 Star Wars movie (later subtitled Episode IV: A New Hope) was on ITV on October 24, 1982, at 7:15 PM. This broadcast drew an estimated audience of over 16.8 million viewers.
