I am born & bred in Dundee. Lived in many places in the UK & Europe through circumstances in my life. That was thee most wonderful wonderful recollection of my city of many RUclips videos I have watched. Thank you. 👍
This is joyous...thank you so very much for unearthing it...I wonder if the 'Cast' were members of the Dundee Dramatic Society at the ttime?...some of our current video-makers could learn a great deal by watching how it could be done in 1939...dgp
I grew up in Dundee in late 60s to mid 70s. We still had the 3Js then. I remember the gang culture too. Still go back on occasion, and always have a Peh and a Bridie as soon as I arrive.
town planners ruined dundee Dundee had the best preserved medieval street plan in the whole of scotland with the overgate it was flattened in the 1960's to make way for a banal shopping block. this was done intentionally
Ffs typical television, Englishman narrating, a Glaswegian actor playing the main role of the dundonian man, the Glaswegian wimmin trying their best to do a Dundonian accent…. Should have got Brian cox to play the dundonian…… or maybe no…. Bob Servant “Aww Right Maw, Aww right” worst dundonian accent ever….. absolute shite… the videos teckle though …..

My grandfather and great-grandparents were born in Dundee in the 1800s.
I take all back, some of those accents were spot on….. great video and still relevant 👍
A great find Well done.
Seen the arch thing that isnt there anymore, there are stones marking where it was. Nice old car.
The jute stowers throwing the bales about as if they were marshmallow weights?

Being married to a Dundonian lass for 25 years, we come up a couple of times a year and it's good to see how Dundee has improved in that time. 😊
Dundee, nothing changed.
Actors with phony Dundee accents, the Dundee 'EH' for Peh is never heard
Dundee born and bred, the accents in this are not Dundonian.
But for Tory Government "manipulation" of boundaries in the 70's Dundee would still be Scotland's third largest city.
Jute,jam, journalism and junkies now the four J’s
What a sad misplaced comment.... Dundee can never fail????
😂a kettle byiller…
A young Daphne Broon there.
