And while we're waiting for #TOTP, here's the Tomorrow's World Christmas Quiz from 1988.

Do you know what #TomorrowsWorld never told me? That I'd get in from the pub and have to deal with the fact that the living room light switch has unpaired itself from the ceiling light. This is why I told Craig the sparky that I actually wanted switches. Not "smart" stuff.

A decade old itself but this is a good listen for those that remember Tomorrow's World on the BBC. Bonus: features James Burke.

Well there haven't been any cyber riots, I am not sure the description of the Internet today as "mostly open" is accurate.

Not seen this clip before. Digital cassette circa 10 years before DCC. Maybe if it had launched in the 80s it might've had a life.

Someday scientists will invent a refund that happens just as fast as a payment. #TomorrowsWorld

I wonder what ever happened to this idea?

I miss this era

For more information on the complete technological dead end that was the BBC's 3D TV week, here's the Tomorrow's World feature on how it worked. Basically it was 3D, as long as people wandered around in circles.

New technology from the 1970s. Tomorrow's World demonstrates a new idea to be able to call a number from a mobile device.

I wonder, will it catch on?
