Brannigans were awesome. Luxury crisps before that was a thing. I stopped seeing them years before they ended. The beef and mustard r3ally cleared your sinus out. Lovely.
I have seen brannigans Ham and mustard in B&M bargains about 8 months ago bought them right away lol. Ahhh brought back instant memories with my nostrils cleared by the big punch from the mustard 🤣
@@Rich77UK I was gonna say the same about Branigans Beef & Mustard clearing my nose and occasionally making my eyes water. They were my pub snack of choice. Muss em.
Introduced a 20 year old at work to Brannigans some 10 years ago and he could not believe the super strong flavour. Every time I was in the office he used to come over and show me he had a bag for his lunch.
A BIG thankyou. It must take you hours to find all the clips, pictures and sounds and magically weave them all together into wonderful journeys of nostalgia. It is greatly appreciated
@@JonnyMc7 My mouth is salivating at the thought lol you'd try to brush crumbs off your trousers not realising you had more on your hands and just made it worse! damn you Burtons get the equipment back listen to the people!!!
Loved them at infant school 1963, 5 yrs old at the tuck shop, had them for years, then they seemed to vanish, l know l was smaller then but they seemed a whole lot bigger, finally found some in the 00s but seemed smaller and greasier, didnt like the beef or salt n vinegar ( dont like those flavours in any crisp really ) justt plain was best. Loved Tudor crisps they were popular here in the north east, Salteds always my go to in a crisp with cheese n onion 2nd, dont like other flavours always too much false flavour in yuck.
Potato puffs were lush, I remember eating them in infant school- sold them for 5p a bag in the tuck shop. I also had a soft spot for Farmer Browns, from what I recall they were similar to the Pom Bears we have now.
Do we agree that we grew up in the best of times? The sweets, crisps, films, music, skateboards, Raleigh Grifter bikes, Chopper bikes, airguns, catapults, games of chases/hunts with all the kids in the streets, building dens in the woods, climbing trees, conkers, etc. etc. glorious days indeed..
Brannigans Beef & Mustard crisps were something to behold and in the distinctive packet unlike the awful attempt at bringing them back. Again another great video. Never recall Chipmunk crisps so learnt something there.
I loved Potato Puffs. They sold them in my primary school's tuck shop. I even saved up the empty packets so I could send off for the badge. I remember it took weeks to arrive in the post, and when it did finally come, I was so disappointed because the thing was tiny!! 😆
Potato Puffs was a school tuck shop staple in the 1960s. Along with with Wagon Wheels and Smiths crisps with a blue paper twist of salt. I remember collecting hundreds of Potato Puffs packets in the playground. To get enough tokens to send away for a plastic aircraft kit.
I did the same thing in the 70s with "Outer Spacer" bags, the playground wire mesh bins where naff so all the bags would blow out, there was a walled corner of the yard they would all get blown too/collect, I just hung around there to 'casually' collect them, teacher praised me thinking I was picking up litter "Nah, Miss I want the tokens for the Spaceship mail in offer"
I miss them all. Football crazy, and Horror bags were my favorites. I remember when Ringo's, and Monster munch first came out, they were of a higher quality then today's versions. If only I had a time machine lol. Thank you.
Yes I loved the cheese and tomato flavoured potato puffs, my absolute favourite. Well Burtons, get the machines back to start making them again!!I think we have such a limited variety of snacks and crisps nowadays, so boring 💤
I used to like Burtons potato puffs from the school tuck shop. I was also partial to KP's Wigwams. But anything vinegary made me feel ill. Loving the drum-rolls, Stu.
I'd forgotten about Tubes. From what I remember they were just square crisps in a different form (?) Seem to remember Bitza Pizza being rock hard. There was a really savoury flavour of Wickers that was amazing. Might have been chicken ? Can't remember having Farmer Browns to be honest
I remember my brother buying outer spacers & sky divers from our school tuck shop which we consumed during play time. Great memories! Thank you Stuart 👍
In the early/mid 70's my dad was a crane driver and one summer holiday h was lifting some machinery into the upper floor of Smiths in Lincoln (about 20 miles from where we lived). Someone handed a packet of crisps to him to give to me, a bit later someone handed over a box full, third time around it was a big polythene bag loaded with packets. I've no idea how many it was in the end but none of the kids in the neighbourhood bought a packet of crisps all summer that year :) I'm adopted and years later started researching my biological family and learned my mother worked at Smiths.
Bovril, I had all most forgotten them, my mum would often have a bag of them along with a proper size Cadbury’s bar of chocolate for me when I got home from school.
I had Bovril sandwiches for school pack lunch nearly every day so obviously loved Bovril crisps. Still eat Bovril as a sandwich/crumpet spread to this day!
Indeed great memories as a child i loved the Ringos made by Golden Wonder especially the cheese and onion flavour plus also the Tudor crisps i had a packet of Golden Wonder Ringos a few years ago and they didn't seem to be the same 😊
Lamb and mint would love those crisp to make a comeback, but there were so many crisps that were short-lived and affordable for kids compared to today's prices. Oh, and the adverts were good too !
Bovril,bloody fantastic crisps. I so wish they were still around and that I could get them here in the US. I remember Sky Divers (Patrick Allen,who did the voiceover,was in the TV series UFO and did the government's "Protect and Survive" nuclear war advice. Used by Frankie Goes To Hollywood on Two Tribes..."Mine is the last voice you will hear,don't be alarmed"!) 😂
When i was at school in mid 70s, older pupils would sell crisps out of the box in the playground. They were a brand called 'Rileys'. I just googled and they were a Scunthorpe manufacturer. Lovely crisps. I went to school in calder valley so they were not exactly a local maker. Anyone else remember them?
Burton Puffs... ah, the school tuck shop.... the rush to buy them before they ran out (which they always did within minutes!), crushing the whole bag and tipping it in in one go for a whole lot of potato hit wonder.... happy days...
I had forgotten about the Burtons Puffs. We got these in our tuck shop. KP and XL were my favourites flavour wise. The KP prawn cocktail and beef especially. I used to get the KP beef, a packet of blackcurrant chewits and a coffee every Saturday morning at the music centre at the local high school. I was 9. Imagine a 9 year old being served coffee nowadays.
Hello Stu🙋♀️ Thank you for a thoroughly entertaining video📹 I remember horror bags, Monster Munch, and the Phileas Fogg range, but I must admit, I don’t remember the other brands...!!🤔🙁 Other snacks I remember enjoying, when I was a child: Discos, Ringos, Walkers Snaps, and a sweet popcorn style snack called Hanky Panky...(?!) The advert featured Arthur Lowe.
Hi Alison. Glad you enjoyed the video! I remember Hanky Panky. Quite moreish if I remember right. Such a great advert with the wonderful Arthur Lowe too!
A friend of mines much older sister worked at the SMITHS Crisps factory near Portsmouth back in the 80's.....She was always bringing home boxes of crisps for one reasons or another....My dad loved the blue salt bag ones...He was a heavy smoker and putting in all the salt meant he could taste something.
As a nostalgia junkie, I was seriously hoping for an appearance of ‘Chutney Outer Spacers’ on here. I still talk about the bloody things to this day as the Zenith of childhood savoury snacks/crisps. If it were possible, would I even want to try one again, or just leave the memory of this fabled flavour and not risk it lol
When I was a kid we got taken to the swimming baths once a week by the primary school and I got a packet of Salt'n'shake crisps back when they were still Smiths from a vending machine and it was full of blue salt bags and no crisps.
Absolutely loved the Brannigan beef & mustard flavour, pity I’ve just found out they went out of production in 2020, explains why I haven’t seen them for a good while, despite looking everywhere for them 🙄
When I went in my local large supermarket recently, I was actually quite surprised to see Space Raiders crisps in multipacks, I didn’t even think the single bags were available any longer!! the only place I ever remember seeing them was in a newsagents or possibly on the boulevard in Dagenham, where my Nan lived in the 1980s. There was an Indian grocers/newsagents where you could buy a bag of crisps for 10 pence!! Never saw that anywhere else, I went in there and was surprised they only cost 10p!! You would never be able to buy them at that price now, it is £1 a bag. I also thought Space Raiders were long gone, and Discos, until I started buying Discos again recently.
I remember the horror bags, i was obsessed with all things ghoulish (as mentioned in the vid). Besides the usual Beano and Dandy comics i started reading a comic called shiver and shake and progressed to others that i forget the names of. Our newsagent also used to get American glossy horror comics which were quite superior.
@@stuviewtv Yea me too, wish I had saved some of my old comics and annuals. I used to buy three comics on a Saturday (pocket money day) and two on a Sunday dad used to get me when he bought his Sunday papers after dropping mum to work, (probably to keep me quiet lol).
Another wonderful video. I'm genuinely gobsmacked that Brannigans have gone. I thought I ate some not that long ago. Alas time has flown these last 4 years.
I know I've said it before, but I'd forgotten how many of those I remember, and liked. All those pickled onion bags. Liked them, but for the want of a better term, they made my eyes sweat. That's the only way I can describe it. I was keen on those puffed crisps. There always seemed more in the bag than normal crisps.
Roosters T-bone steak! Damn they were good. Saw those in B&M bargains and Brannigan’s ham and mustard I had to buy both multipacks brannigans classic blow your nostrils strong mustard hit 😂
Thanks you triggered a memory of pack lunches at primary school. We’d often play flicking a Sky Diver off the top of my Snoopy flask into a cup of diluted orange drink 😄 I also remember pinching Piglets between thumb and forefinger until they burst everywhere lol
Nibb-it and XL crisps were two I remember. There was also a UK variety that tasted exactly like Irish Taytos, I can't remember their name. Some potato growers had crisp making machines, and only sold their output to local shops. Smiths and possibly Golden Wonder used to come in greaseproof paper bags.
Loved Bovril crisps! Closest thing to them are M&S Beef and Onion crisps. Them Brannigan's have already had a comeback, about 5 years ago, then they disappeared again? Horror bags were amazing.
Potato Puffs,delicious, love them back again! Kp sky divers salt vinegar lovely, Smith crisps gorgeous mainly plain, though loved all the othersones, sky divers good flavours kp,chipmonk very tasty,tubes potato Puffs so nice😊 for them to come back😊😊
Great video. I loved Tudor Pickled Onion and salt n vinegar puffs. Fish and chips was a firm favourite too. I liked the advert on No. 2, using cast members from Are you being served! Thank you.
I remember when I was 17 and my mate was five months older, so he was 18 in January, we used to go to pub that had no issue serving us despite my age, being the adults we were we always ordered a a pint, cigar and roast beef and mustard flavor brannigans crisps.
The only ones in the whole video I recognise are Brannigans and Phillias Fogg! Never heard of any of the others. We had Space Raiders and Transform-a-snack (my personal favourite because, well, Transformers, innit!) when I was a kid, both of which you can still get. Smiths Salt n Shake were lush too, but Walkers ruined them (cheers America 🙄). Remember the advert? "We wanna be, Smiths crisps, we wanna be, Smiths crisps" based to the music of Bobby's Girl? Brilliant that was!
Most of these are from before my time. I used to love Brannigan's crisps when I was a kid. The beef and mustard ones were the best. Walkers also used to make amazing crinkle cut beef and mustard flavour crisps, they were only ever available in one shop near my school. I never saw them anywhere else. Also Frisps were great.
Great work Stu, I love these walks down memory lane. Thank you for putting this together, they're a real joy. I'll give a shout out to Beef flavour Superman crisps (They were triangles with the letter S in them) and tomato flavour Spiderman crisps (they were webs).

Absolutely.
Abso-bloody-lutely. I'm an 80s kid and miss the ease of life even in the 90s.
You are spot on Rachel. A great time to grow up. Life was much less complicated back then.
YUP!
I'm still working on a time machine to get us there. I'll let you know when it's ready 😂

Potato Puffs..the nostalgia, the taste, the yearning for a tin full!
Not the only one loved them. Best just poured into mouth 😂 messy otherwise. Miss those they need to come back
Yup all crunched up @@JonnyMc7
I'm not usually much one for nostalgia, but, 60 years on from the junior school tuck shop, I still miss Potato Puffs! Nothing else quite like them.
I really know what you mean. I really miss those days.. Kids today will never know
A BIG thankyou. It must take you hours to find all the clips, pictures and sounds and magically weave them all together into wonderful journeys of nostalgia. It is greatly appreciated
So glad you enjoy the nostalgia. Many thanks for the kind words.
@@stuviewtvhey stu I grew up in the 70's but I don't remember skydivers crisps but some others I remember
Loved Brannigan's in all flavours.
Brannigans peanut Very tasty And crispy where lovery😊mmm
Lamb and mint…what a flavour and never been reproduced 🥲
Beef and mustard! Really tasty.
@@susanleitch8649 Or flavours of crisps was tasty and beer 🍺 nuts wonderful
Ham and mustard. Blow the nostrils strong mustard sorted a blocked nose good style 😂
I loved the Brannigans Ham and pickle flavour. I thought they were so nice 😛😋
The mustard flavour was hot. HOT!
@@76ToneCromeyeah ham and mustard blew the nostrils good style. Best flavour
Burtons Puffs were amazing! Just the plain ones! I can still imagine the taste today!
Plain were best loved them. Just want to pour a pack into my mouth lol too messy with fingers they are like crumbs but lovely

Brannigans roast beef and mustard!!! I was addicted to them🤣
The best ever !!
I thought it was beef and horseradish, ham and mustard, either way they were amazing !!
I mis remembered the horseradish bit, I will never forget the flavour though
I used to really like the beef and mustard flavour XL Hula Hoops too, another discontinued line.
Walkers hands down have ruined the UK crisp industry.
Frito lays is where you’re ire should be
Absolutely! Bloody Yanks ruin everything they get their grubby mits on! 🤬
Yep so many great brands have died because of them.
@@anthonymaddaford8474 Pepsico is the brand owner, Frito Lays is just a subsidiary the same as Walkers
@@kernow22 definitely! There were so many great small companies making crisps until the ' bigger is better ' company came along!
Potato puffs were lush, I remember eating them in infant school- sold them for 5p a bag in the tuck shop.
I also had a soft spot for Farmer Browns, from what I recall they were similar to the Pom Bears we have now.
That is my school days youve described 🤔🫡🙂

Absolutely spot on.
Brilliant and absolutely 👍 were you my best mate neighbour lol because I had and did all those things 😃

Oh yes, Brannigans all the way!
Those Roast Beef and Mustard crisps were amazing and they could clear out your sinuses..... proper crisps!
Thanks for these, its amazing what memories are stirred up by crisp packets.
I loved Outer Spacers, thanks for bringing back a repressed memory from the golden years.
My pleasure!
I'd forgotten all about them! They were S-tier when I was a nipper.
Bovril were lovely
Sausage and tomato were my faves
I had totally forgotten sausage and tomato flavour they were nice as well.
Bones and Wheelz, two of my favourites from back in the day.

Snacks are less 'fun' than they used to be. You'd never get Piglets or Hedgehog flavoured crisps made today.
Burton's potato puffs were my absolute favourite as a kid, a bag crushed between two slices of bread and butter for our lunch 😁
Sounds good!
@stuviewtv It was Stu 😁
I used to like Burtons potato puffs from the school tuck shop. I was also partial to KP's Wigwams. But anything vinegary made me feel ill. Loving the drum-rolls, Stu.
Thought I'd try and add a bit of suspense!
I use to love Smiths Tubes. The only place I could get Nibb-it Wheelz was Kwik Save back in the day..... they were great.
As always...a great blast to the past...❤
Thanks!
I love this channel, it brings back so many memories of my childhood.
That's great to hear! Many thanks.
Agreed. Memories come flooding back. Thanks, Stu. 😊
anyone remember UFO’s? my granny always brought us some back from Bingo at the local Catholic Hall.
I'd forgotten about Tubes. From what I remember they were just square crisps in a different form (?) Seem to remember Bitza Pizza being rock hard. There was a really savoury flavour of Wickers that was amazing. Might have been chicken ? Can't remember having Farmer Browns to be honest
Yes, I think Tubes were simply Squares but rolled up.
Puffs yum. I remember making myself sick after eating 4 packets as a kid. The Beef ones were the best. I could go a packet just now.
😂🫶❤
I loved the plain. Crumbs everywhere 😂 best to just pour into your mouth less mess
I remember my brother buying outer spacers & sky divers from our school tuck shop which we consumed during play time. Great memories! Thank you Stuart 👍

When I was a kid we got taken to the swimming baths once a week by the primary school and I got a packet of Salt'n'shake crisps back when they were still Smiths from a vending machine and it was full of blue salt bags and no crisps.
I had a friend at school who once had a Nestle Breakaway bar that was solid chocolate, it was the stuff of legend, even the Town Mayor came to see it.
Brannigans beer nuts were one of my favourites
Love it, didn't realise Brannigans had gone (of course they have they haven't been in the shop for ages dohhhh). They were SO tasty 🙂
Another classic crisp was Ruffles. Nice and thick cut with a delicate taste. Luverly!

This has made me think of HEINZ HAUNTED HOUSE SPAGHETTI for some reason. I loved the Smiths Horror bags .
I vaguely recall bats being in that spaghetti.
I can’t remember if they’ve been mentioned in a previous video but there used to be some poppadom type crisps sometime in the late 80’s/early 90’s.

Loved Bovril crisps! Closest thing to them are M&S Beef and Onion crisps. Them Brannigan's have already had a comeback, about 5 years ago, then they disappeared again? Horror bags were amazing.
Potato Puffs,delicious, love them back again! Kp sky divers salt vinegar lovely, Smith crisps gorgeous mainly plain, though loved all the othersones, sky divers good flavours kp,chipmonk very tasty,tubes potato Puffs so nice😊 for them to come back😊😊
Potato puffs were the best ever about 2p a pack in the early 70s. Theres a facebook group trying to get them back into production!
I’m a 90s kid so I only remember the brannigans crisps from this list and didn’t even realize they had been gone until now they was nice aswell
Potato puffs were my favourite. They were the only ones available at the school snack shop. LOVED THEM.
Classic tuck shop favourite!
Pocket. Money munch on a Saturday morning when me dad gave give me £1,. I forgot about brannigans. They were banging 😎😁
Great video. I loved Tudor Pickled Onion and salt n vinegar puffs. Fish and chips was a firm favourite too. I liked the advert on No. 2, using cast members from Are you being served! Thank you.
Yes, what a great advert for Horror Bags. They don't make fun ads like that anymore.
I remember when I was 17 and my mate was five months older, so he was 18 in January, we used to go to pub that had no issue serving us despite my age, being the adults we were we always ordered a a pint, cigar and roast beef and mustard flavor brannigans crisps.
I loved Bovril crisps. Would love to see those back. Also Brannigans....they were unique.
Brannigans had such strong flavours. Used to love them.
@@stuviewtv . I think the strong flavours were a sneaky way to get us to drink more beer!
@@snowysnowyriver It worked!
The only ones in the whole video I recognise are Brannigans and Phillias Fogg! Never heard of any of the others. We had Space Raiders and Transform-a-snack (my personal favourite because, well, Transformers, innit!) when I was a kid, both of which you can still get. Smiths Salt n Shake were lush too, but Walkers ruined them (cheers America 🙄). Remember the advert? "We wanna be, Smiths crisps, we wanna be, Smiths crisps" based to the music of Bobby's Girl? Brilliant that was!
Is that Nimoy doing the Outerspacers? Amazing!
It certainly is!
Tudahhh and Brannigans. Can’t believe they are no longer with us 🥲
Most of these are from before my time. I used to love Brannigan's crisps when I was a kid. The beef and mustard ones were the best. Walkers also used to make amazing crinkle cut beef and mustard flavour crisps, they were only ever available in one shop near my school. I never saw them anywhere else. Also Frisps were great.
How can puffs be no1, they were like eating razor blades! 😂
From what I remember, they were like eating a bag of broken bits.
I loved them, our school used to sell them in the tuck shop, dont recall seeing them in the shops though.
You had to crush em in the bag before eating them
Great work Stu, I love these walks down memory lane. Thank you for putting this together, they're a real joy. I'll give a shout out to Beef flavour Superman crisps (They were triangles with the letter S in them) and tomato flavour Spiderman crisps (they were webs).
So glad you enjoy the memories! Thanks.
The Brannigans range was fab!!
Oh yes, they were the best.
What a great top ten stu! I loved brannigans and hedgehog chips,walkers should make a ham and pineapple crisp i would be all over that
Brannigans were just awesome.
Monster bags were a real favourite and I and many others would Love to see them return 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
