This made me realise how hard we must now work to produce a world for our kids and grandkids, and not just mope about how great it was in our childhood. I call on my fellow doddery old gits to improve the world for the benefit of those to whom we bequeath it.

I think some of this was shot round Ruskin park / Denmark hill

Not the good old days but the days were good.

As a rocker I went out with a mod when we went into the pub we'd stand in the middle of the bar rockers one side mods the

Mods … cool ???…😂😂… not on them hairdryers ….😂

Name of the song is sus af and the lyrics are even more sus

Collins was in the Barlinnie Special Unit with Jimmy Boyle etc but he wasn't regarded as much of a fighter.

The best time to be born in the early fifties to be able to be in the 60s and the 70s and the 80s and the 90s great time to live😂🎉😂🎉

I was born in Liverpool 1956. In 1959 apparently PM Harold MacMillan told the British people "most of you have never had it so good". Well that certainly wasn't true for my family living on the Croxteth Estate.

Another homage to my lifelong Bobby Vee fan and the song "Charms" holds a special place in my heart, dedicated to my first teenage crush as a 13 year teen who sadly passed away a few years ago sleep, gently sleep,🙏🦋

The Dynamic Duo. ‘Good God I hear you’ as quoted on their second Album, Soul Men (green cover) I still play it often on my lovely Deck.

That music is so evocative & so perfect for this video ! 😢( it’s a great tune 🎵 Summer Place. - Percy Faith ) wonderful stuff !

what fun we had without all this shit about immigrants as they would have been put in their place then.today the people dont have the balls...

Oh great days , great clubs everywhere, looking good ,great music dancing alnight, blocking up on a Saturday night. Oh I still get that great feeling when I see this video and hear the two great pieces of music played. 😎

I was 1 year old. My mum used to shop Kings Road and Carnaby Street. My dad decorated Dudley Moores Apartment in Cheney Walk Chelsea. My dad was a brilliant decorator. I remember watching him decorate our house, such attention to detail.

The kids would all be black or koranimal now, & their "teacher" would be a green- haired, pierced, tattooed, big-booted pussy -eating transgender. Who brainwashes the kids politically, racially & sexually.

Everyone was thinner no processed foods and better looking

My childhood Sunday afternoons tv consistered of an episode of "Skippy the Bush Kangaroo" & a little later (around 5.0pm) " The Sooty Show".

None of this was the fault of the Mods if I remember. We just wanted to get away from hum drum jobs in the citiy. Sadly the locals took exception. One other thing, I don`t remember ONE stabbing during any of those punch ups

In a word, we weren't AFRAID.

Yep, funny times indeed! Skinny young miniskirted chicks with desperate old guys. Yeah we sure miss the laughs😂😂😂😂😂

We knew hardship and poverty, we had culture and boundaries, yet smiled through it all and had fun and freedom (mostly). We accepted what we had, we were grateful. Thank you for the nostalgia. I am going to work on bringing back into my life the simplicity of those times. Today's country is just not the same, so I am going to try and make it for me.

Terri Garr is the dancer on left.

Scooters beer and dance!

Lovely film and music , i was born in '56 so it's the 60's really that i can recall , i'm going to look up Percy Faith and his orchestra on spotyify

No immigrants no phones tattoos working class kids playing with what they had yesterday times were tough after post war but they could play unsupervised in streets. True community spirit none of this IAM alright jack sod you,

I still wear button down shirt collars to this day, i remember spending most of my wages on a pair of leather slip ons Dad went crazy Lol!

Glasgow born and bred. It's true that we had much warmer summers back then...

English culture ...bank holidays seaside....@ Sundays...seeing all the Londoners exit by train to Southend brighton😊

I was born in a village in rural co durham in 1952 dad was a long distance lorry driver had many trips in the 60s i can remember glasgows tenements heading to the docks cannon street middlesborough on way to dorman longs definitely a shock to me

STAX ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT

My two favorite bands at the time were Rush and the Jam,i was a cross between a mod and a rocker...a Mocker

Wish we could go back😢

I used to love the Punch and Judy show where Punch is belting the living daylights out of Judy with a stick saying "Thats the way to do it" !! The modern P.C. crowd would have a fit !! 🙂😂🤣

Those kids ..pensioners now. Starmer looked at this, and saw the peasants enjoying life…his mission to inflict misery…

Harry Fenton

Wow! Exactly my generation. I wonder what all my friends and school mates of that time are doing now. The people who recorded this footage must have waited for days for the right weather. Summer in those days lasted maybe three or four weeks at most with lots of showers in between, and take note that everyone is dressed as if it's October.

I grew up on those flats old Kent road

What an era! I loved dressing up as a top mod, I was soooooo cool😂

I've just found this video - I know times were hard but it all looks happy, wonderful, so much simpler, and so much smarter. I was born in 1957 so was really a 60's child but just compare these scenes to today. What the hell has happened to our country ? Where's a time machine when you need one ?

No knives, we just used fisty cuffs, the odd boot and lots of fun. I was a top mod and just thought rockers were outdated 😂 I just loved this era and thought I was one of the coolest dudes around.😆

OMG, what a good time we had. Even here in Vienna was a mod scene. In the 80s the kids had FUN, now only bad news everyday. I miss my scooter, 🛵 🇦🇹 🇬🇧

Experts on the tv keep telling us how bad things were in the 50's when in fact the majority of them were not even born. I was born in 1949 and my family and friends were a darn sight happier then than most people seem to be now.

A dorky cool.

There were millions of black and brown people in this at that time they have been purposely omitted to create an artificial white majority society of the past British nation this is all false brainwashing// these sort of white only films should be banned please don't delete my comments u tube it's just a thought

Yes! These were probably the halcyon days of my generations existence.

LOve the footage where did you find such great video of Mods scootin' about?

ENJOY! , after what they went though only ten years earlier.

That music sums it up!

It was only many years later that I learned I grew up in a north London slum in the 1960s and that the rubble yards and ‘playgrounds’ were actually bomb sites that hadn’t been tidied up. To me at the time it was just home and the streets and canal, the tube station and railway tunnel were just one fabulous big adventure. My grandkids live in the suburbs now in the lap of luxury with gardens and parks but their childhood is shit in comparison with mine. What have we done to the country?
