I'm very confused about that ad about cross ply and radial tires. I don't know a thing about tires, really. I don't know a double tread tire from a radial tire. Could someone explain to me what exactly IS a cross ply tire and a radial tire, and what happens if you "mix" them? Thanks!
Cross Ply = Tyre made of several layers of rubber oriented at opposing angles to adjacent layers. Radial = Tyre made (Mostly) of steel wire arranged in a web, coated with rubber. Cross-Ply tyres wear down a lot quicker than radials, hence the dangers present from "mixing" them. To this day the only legal "mix" (Under UK law) is two radials on the driving axle, and two cross-ply on the rolling (unpowered) one.
wish he'd have gone through a car window back then, Just might have saved 1,000 of kids being raped & their lives ruined by sa vile rolf harris was also in these ads another paedophile who was caught luckily before he died, Wonder how many more celeb paedos are out there unidentified as yet, BRITAIN'S SHAME KEEPING QUIET ABOUT PAEDOPHILIA WHY ?????????
i remember when i was four i watched someone steal a woman's purse from her shopping cart, i started screaming "thats not yours!" and started throwing cans at the thief until my dad noticed
The more horrifying part of this video was 5:13 .... god, the fear on that woman's face is so real, as can be attested to by anyone who has gone out shopping and forgotten their purse/wallet, or not had enough on them to pay for the whole shop. *shudders*
Is it me or did everyone have greasy straggly hair in those days? Makes me feel better because I am the owner of greasy straggly hair. Perhaps shampoos have come on a long way since those days.
"I'd rather not say what's in the saddlebag - it's personal"
Priceless!!
It was a Jeffrey Archer novel lol
BET HE WAS A POOF LOOKS LIKE ONE MIGHT OF BEEN A DILLDO IN HIS CYCLE BAG HE WAS GOIING TO PUT UP HIS ARSE OR HIS BOYFREINDS THATS WHY HE WOULDN'T SAY
Blunt,succinct and to the point and it worked !
That gag of irony at the end of the bike theft ad cracks me up every time! xD
~ Dashes off to record his frame number... :-) ~
love the bike advert! Especially the man with the neckercheif and big hat!!
"You can't argue with a car" ? Try telling that to John Cleese !
1:34 I totally thought Mrs Blunders was about to say "Oh, bollocks".
Loved the dads army pelican crossing clips.
@6:29 … WTF ? The policeman is Mr Blunders !
Yes that bloke has often played Police Constables in various situation comedies & dramas in the 60s & 70s such as On the Buses!
@@mikemartin2957 Yeah, his name is Ivor Salter, he died in 1991.
That video about the cross-ply and radial tyres - wasn't that the Blunders' car that ended up on its roof?
i come across Mr blunders every time i do a driving lesson!
"Can you describe the bike?" "Certainly, it had two wheels, a pair of handlebars and a set of pedals." ...
I like the: Watch your purse: before someone else does!

Are those soldiers in the Pelican Crossing spots the cast of DAD'S ARMY?
Yes.
Seeing Savile on a seat belt pif is enough to give nightmares of him strapping kids down.

Why did Hodges refer to Manwaring as Napoleon?
The Blunders certainly lived up to their name, didn't they !
I went from laughing to be horrified!

Christ ! I'm glad the Blunders didn't live on my street, I'd have been scared just to walk to the corner shop !
charlie slater in the car using the pelican crossing
THAT DESK SERGEANT IS MR BLUNDERS THE LOOK ON HIS FACE WHEN THE COPPER TELLS HIM SOMEONE, S NICKED HIS BIKE THE LOOK ON HIS FACE SAYS IT ALL

Sabin1981 Did you not see the part with Jimmy Saville?
If there's someone I want to learn safety from, it's definitely Jimmy Savile.
Margaret Thatcher got him the job.
@0:54 - Wow ! I bet that was pane-ful !
I feel so uncomfortable watching these actors driving without seatbelts. Obviously these ads had their desired effect!
WTF? Isn't that the guy who used to be Eastenders driving the car @ 3:18??
yes, rather quentin crisp
@9:21 -- "And whatever you do... don't grow up to dress like me."
You're just walking along, minding your own business when some idiot comes along and smashes a peach with hammer.
WTF?? Spaghettit with Brussel sprouts??
@ 6:09 "I rather not say what's in the saddlebag it's personal" I think we can all guess what was in this Nancy boy's saddlebag.
Sergeant Waters a 10” inch dildo !
@@tammclean9276 I was hoping it wouldn't....."come" to that! 😉😈😁
Brilliant!!!!
5:30 "Ooo, my purse!"
Good heavens, that horrible square-dancy countrified music for the Pelican crossing signals. The US apologizes....
Speak for yourself Sandra. We didn't force them to use it.
Clunk click Savils around
Never go a car with Jimmy savile
RiffTrax would argue for Kelsey Grammer ;)
@7:49 and soon after that PSA hit it big, a young Leo Gallagher moved to America to take up a career in comedy.
See how they use fear.
Les Grey from Mud
At 6:44 the horror!!

70s camp
We have a Mr. Blunders in America...only we call him Billy Joel.

Beware of the Blunders around the corner- or George Michael.
Keep Jimmy Savile OUT of your videos.
