Eyes down for episode three of Through the Square Window!

In this instalment, Samira Ahmed and Graham Kibble-White investigate a selection of UK TV programmes that were airing 41 years ago, in November 1984: A blistering edition of BBC1 game show Bob's Full House; Ray Davies' Channel 4 TV film Return to Waterloo; we compare and contrast two female-led police dramas, both screening on Saturday nights, Juliet Bravo and The Gentle Touch; and we're joined by TV director, producer and former Blue Peter editor Richard Marson to discuss the final ever episode of Rentaghost.

Richard's book, Box of Delights: The Story of BBC Children's Television: 1967-1997 is published on November 17 by Ten Acre Books.
