Enjoyed ITV's Lucan but in one point there was clearly a BT Trimphone on a table. Am I wrong but Lucan disappeared early 74 and as far as I can remember, I'm 48, there's no way trimphones's were around then.

Prior to that year I was going out with someone whose party trick was to make that crazy trimphone warble.
When I worked for Post Office Telephones, in the days when you had to rent your handset, one customer rang up to ask if it was okay to paint his trimphone gold, as he liked the one on The Golden Shot........

My neighbour still had a brown one in 1973, I remember it well, because her parrot mimicked it all the time.
