There's a huge amount we can look fondly back on from the 90s.

TV shows, bands, even clothes. Although to be fair, you probably see as many people wearing clothes from the 90s walking down the street today as you did back then.

Maybe you had a Tamagotchi, or lugged around a CD Walkman to listen to the Spice Girls.

Maybe you came home from school and logged on to MSN Messenger to chat with your friends.

Research of 2,000 adults found six in 10 feel nostalgic about the decade, and the results show television is the aspect people miss most.

Other shows considered iconic for the era include The Fresh Prince of Bel Air, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Ab Fab.

Music was also a great influence for three in 10 adults, with the Spice Girls, Take That, Oasis and Westlife among those artists most fondly remembered.

Others loved the fashion trends of the decade, including double denim, low rise jeans and choker necklaces.

While playing Snake on the phone, Tamagotchis and Power Rangers also take people back more than 30 years.
