- A look back to the early days of an established colour television PAL broadcasting system in the United Kingdom.
During the 1970's these amazing films provided a break in between the test card and television service trade information and provided a chance to view some of the best freely available interesting colour films then available. This mixed range of footage was often 'sponsored' as an indirect form of advertising, but these colour movie features were indeed classics in their own right.
One of the most memorable films in the series.
Enjoy this lovely little story, so beautifully shot in 1963 without any words, and none needed.

This is a great watch. And something modern television could learn from. Thank you for providing it to the public.
How true! Thank you for the comment. Jayne Anne.
Oh this was a lovely film, and they all lived happily ever after.......well, as best they can
Thank you, an absolute gem of a film that has remained in my memory for over 50 years since I used to watch it regularly when I was a youngster.
This wonderful little film is a treasured memory and experience from my earliest years, along with many other Trade Test Films such as Paint, Giuseppina, and Evolution, to name just a few. So glad to rediscover them all on RUclips after all these years.
So glad to be able to bring some of these to you. Thank you for your comment much appreciated. Jayne Anne.
What a gem! I just did a search and the service station is still there 👍🏻Many thanks.....
Thank you.
Sencillamente hermoso!!!! Como de lo simple y desechado se puede hacer cosas maravillosas, el ingenio humano no tiene fronteras y la perseverancia es camino al éxito, gracias querida Janne sencillamente maravilloso, es asi como el ser humano logra grandes cosas cuando vuela la imaginación✈🌷
So true Maria. Thank you. Jayne x.
An achingly charming film. Surprise pleasures like this are worth so much.
This was shown pretty much every afternoon on BBC2 back in the 60's and 70's as part of the trade test films for TV dealers to set up their TVs prior to sale . A very well made film with a nice little story . 😀
I remember this, although I only saw it in black and white.
Me too. I thought it was only in black and white. Wonderful memories.
Watched this as a kid, tears, memories come flooding back, thank you🙏
The Garage is still there, it on the A325 at Bucks Horn Oak, the pub oppisite is now been turned into houses. great little film
He did a good job , the Morris is still taxed and on the road in 2024
Looks like the Austin Healey is dead though, different age I remember well.
Thanks Jayne . Really enjoyed this short film you put on the tube xxx
I REMEMBER WATCHING THIS AT SCHOOL IN THE EARLY 1970s
It leaves a strong impression I think.
This is the first time I've seen it
@@feline1104 very much so ,you never cease to amaze me with your content, from laughter to tears ,you evoke wonderful emotions ❤xxx
Wonderful memories of this
Oh Jayne is endearing and delicate and....More adjectives. Thank you for showing us the beautiful things.
Our best wishes.
This is my pleasure Salvador. Jayne x
Thank you for this -a real treat ! Loved the trade test films-watched the one on the Liverpool catholic cathedral with the glass being set with resin - little realising that 30 years later I would be standing in the same building as one of the pieces fell out and crashed to the floor !
I drove through Buck's Horn Oak yesterday ruclips.net/video/pInD__vMoK4/видео.html The filling station is now Shell, the Post Office shop is a Spar Shop and the pub in the background, The Halfway House, is now houses.
Thank you Nathan, pity we can't go back in time .....
just saw the part with the rag and bone man: did you All Clock the music!! The prototype for Steptoe and Son!
Shame the name of the rag and bone man was not given in the end credits as he played his part well
music by Ron Grainer!! the same year he made the classic Dr Who theme!
I was surprised by the colour and detail of the film: has it been restored?
I was wondering if it was shot on 35mm as opposed to 16mm....which meant a larger budget but better quality of course. I'm guessing the original crew are long gone alas, so, maybe we will never know.
She isn't credited, but the actress playing the girlfriend is the late Caroline Mortimer, who was later married to Leslie Phillips.
Thank you, I remember Leslie Phillips. This sort of background information adds so much interest. Much appreciated.
Daughter of John Mortimer, creator of Rumpole of the Bailey.
@trevorsmith7753 step daughter, I stand corrected. Many thanks.
I don’t know where you found this one, but I’m very glad that you did. Very enjoyable, thank you for posting.
If this movie was remade today with gen z actors the spoiled rich boy would be driving a tesla and the poor boy would be restoring the 1960s sports car from the original film
Wow Jayne, where did you get all these great films from? Wonderful, I cant sleep tonight and this is making things much better. Thanks and your taste in music is spot on. Thanks so much for making the hours easier. Hugs
