- A look at the construction of the earliest tube light / rope light.
This video was originally going to be short, but ended up going off on a huge tangent because I realised that the Glasgow George Square Xmas lights I worked with for over 20 years were the FIRST xmas lights to use tubelight! I knew they had caused a sensation when they were first unveiled and inspired a lot of other cities around the world, but I didn't realise they were pretty much the prototypes for the future construction of Xmas lighting frames.
It also made me realise how unique and complicated the original George Square Xmas light "spectacular" was, and how it evolved over time electrically. All just stuff I took for granted because it was just "one of my jobs". This year (2016) the original lights were replaced by standard flat, white, unanimated LED frames. It feels strange. Like the end of an era.
