Compared to today, everything was so laid back and calm. Unlike the mindless frenetic broadcasting of the modern world.
when christmas felt like christmas5
“Has it ever struck you that life is all memory, except for the one
present moment that goes by you so quick you hardly catch it going?”― Tennessee Williams.
The here and now is all there is , we are like the needle on the record.
I was the Technical assistant who was vision and soundmixing BBC 1 to air that night! I put Sound of Music on air, went and had a dinner break and came back in time to take it off air. Great memories!
Must have been great working at TV Centre in those days, un like the mess the BBC is now.
Peter woods was 48 when he did this news broadcast, but looks and always looked a lot older
Yes, and he sounded more aristocratic than the Royal Family!
The drink by all accounts. He was drunk on more than one news bulletin according to Michael Buerk.
Boxing Day then is better than Xmas Day now.
A basic winter BBC Saturday in the 1970s was mile better than Xmas Day now.
It was great to see the Boxing Day trailer with the very first Christmas special of 'Last Of The Summer Wine' entitled 'Small Tune On A Penny Wassail' on it.
Happier Times.
True Grit, A Further Adventure - definitely one to forget.
Fantastic Memories for me aged 8 at the time
Okay. That Santa Claus ident at 7:31 was all kinds of creepy.
the freighter's captain had both arms broken.... i laughed my socks off. the news was so funny.
I thought Woods was about to say the captain had both arms ripped off, so when he said they'd been broken it was something of an anticlimax! Still, it was pointed out that the seamen were given Christmas Dinner (with the captain, I presume, being fed by the 'captain's mate').
We had winters!
Christmas 1978 might have been very different on BBC One if the unions had not gotten their way. BBC One and Two went off air on Thursday 21st December, followed by all BBC national radio stations at 4.00pm on Friday 22nd December, leaving just one unified national radio broadcast run by management. At 10.00pm the BBC caved into the union demands for a pay rise, and offered over 12% with a further rise later. That save BBC Christmas 1978.
"Faith in the future" + "a better tomorrow", as they entered the year when Thatcherism would start.
YOU are joking?!
Well, the sombre type of joking: sighing.
When BBC did not Just want to tick the right boxs🤔
7:30 - Oh how lovely, nothing says Christmas and the festive season more than the decapitated head of Santa Claus.
lol
I was 8 this Christmas. Would have scared me to death
As a bit creepy. I remember it.
@@colinjennings3661You are therefore the same age as me, because I was eight and a half- six months older than you!
3:37 Why is Dracula walking down the steps in front of the Royal Family?
He must be leading them away from the church
Because Ozzy Osbourne and John Wayne Gacy were not available. It was 1978, they were big.
The news graphics look so primitive. I was 5.
People who day it was better TV then, be totally honest.If you had 2 rooms and room one had that that programming with Mark Yarwood,Frank Spencer etc,and room two had today's programming and the choice of Netflix,and everything else we have now would you really choose room one?.Nostslgia is great but the reality is you would get very bored with 70s Christmas programming very quickly once the rose tinted glasses fell off.
Absolutely right. I remember a few years back being on a BA flight to the US in December and one of the video options was “Morecambe and Wise Christmas Show 1973”. I thought “great - this will be perfect!” So I watched it, expecting to think “they don’t make em like this anymore!”. The reality? It was incredibly mediocre and dull, I changed to another program halfway through. You think things were better years ago (especially Christmas entertainment) largely because you were a kid back then and didn’t know any better.
The announcer at 7.10 sounded like he had a few too many mulled wine's
french connection? what if we repurposed people who were depressed? suicidal? ask them to seek out narcotics gangs and eliminate them? that might cheer them up?
boxing day entertainment ?????? are you being served .... I laughed at this shit once what the hell was wrong with me.
Better than the endless slurry of reality crap today.
I guess when it was brand new in 1978 it had an edge. It also helped that I was 7 at the time.
Lol
I was eight and at junior school then. Remember Are you being Served well and enjoyed it, even though the double entendres didn't mean anything to me back in those days!
At least Christianity has declined alot in 40 plus years.
Sadly…. So has society..
@@Bambisgf77the two are not connected.
Diminishing influence of the Christian myths is a good thing.
@@graemestarkey7524Sorry, Graeme, I must respectfully disagree. Christianity is not full of myths, even though I was eight at the time and not a Christian then. If people turn their backs on God and his ways, society's foundations crumble. God has created everyone for relationship with him and we abandon his blueprint for life at our peril. Nothing and no-one can fill the God-shaped void except Jesus Christ!
