- more public information office films from the 1970s. i'd be very surprised if you cant remember them.they were shown on every advert break. so ,enjoy more memories of your childhood.with more to come...
I've been binge watching 70s and 80s PSAs
This is the ultimate trip back in time remember these so well ❤
*sigh* Rest in peace, Keith Flint! Legendary front-man of iconic band, The Prodigy, who used Charley the Cat in one of their music videos
Some of these PIFs were pretty scary back then when they were shown late in the evenings
Metal filings in the eye can very often blind a guy: Sad clown face intensifies
Man my mom refused to buy baby walkers for me and my sister after she saw that add, and probably because she watched her friends baby brother fall down the basement steps and nearly was brain damaged for the rest of his life
As far as I'm concerned they're a waste of money
2:33 - See, folks, this is why makerspaces always have you take safety orientation classes beforehand.
3:52 - David: "Well, I *wanted* to learn to swim, but my mum and dad wouldn't let me!"
Charley says always tell your mummy before you go off somewhere so she know how you are with ❤
the learn to swim shocked me, i learned to swim when i was only two or three
I remember most of these,I haven't heard the phrase "country code "since I was a child. The ones with Joe and Petunia were my faves
Who did the voice over for the first ad? Was it Patrick Troughton or Jon Pertwee?
THE CAT CHARLEY MEOWS IN THE CHARLEY SAYS P.I.F WAS KENNY EVERETT
The animation at 8:30 looks like Scanimate, can anyone confirm?
No, its rotoscopy
As if that little chain wouldn’t be bused easily by the guys axe…
1:26 why o why won't they follow the country code
James Smilie is the voice in put the chain on PIF
Lol old fridges can kill
5:05 was a little darker than I expected
True
Learn to swim,, you could pull a bird!
It’s ever so nice to watch these adverts again.
Pretty much. it is surprising however to note how iconic these things are in people's minds.
First time I've ever seen poor Claude the Caravan in colour - we had black and white through the 70s...
Not knowing how to swim is probably the worst reason for being dumped ever.
Don't worry, Dave, she's not worth it.
I agree shallow bitch!!
Or Dave could also claim, "I *wanted* to learn to swim, but my parents wouldn't let me!"
glad you liked them m8. their very hard to come bt these days. ive got over 150 of them
I remember all of these, they certainly got the point across even though they tended to be humorous. If you do not mind, I will add to my page. :)
9:37 That's exactly what I was thinking before it popped up. I love the UK. =)
I think it was just the opposite...making a potential intruder so absurd and over the top, you get the message WITHOUT becoming paranoid.
Brilliant
"This chap is a fiddler"... for a moment I thought that was public information film of a different kind.
James Nuttall I thought it was a seatbelt advert with Jimmy Saville 😃😃😃😃😃😃😄😄😄😄
Yes he especially likes to fiddle outside the school gates at 3.30 in the afternoon!!
James Nuttall when I grew up I would take things apart to learn how they work
2:54 - This is also why makerspaces have you take safety orientation classes before you take on any project.
The rule in our house is that you NEVER touch anyone's gear without their express permission
What years the chain across the front door pif from?
1976
When folk come out to the country, why oh why won’t they follow the country code?
This is why subsequent generations have been so utterly clueless my generation were constantly educated about the negative effects of stupidity
Yup, nowadays people are coddled to the point of retardation :(
Unfortunately now, and for about the last 20 years, stupidity is outright encouraged and rewarded.
Dave can do anything except swim.
ANYTHING?
What is the country code?
+Kael M en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Country_Code there you go, guessing you're not from the uk? bascially its a set of rules of how to conduct yourself in the countryside. esp around farm lands etc.
I am from the UK and I have never heard of it!
Basically, the UK's answer to *our* "leave no trace".
Don't leave a mess. Clean up after yourself. Don't let your dog run in grazing pastures, unless you've received permission from the land owner. Leave fences and gates alone. Essentially, act like a guest and be courteous and respectful. Something that sadly, too few city dwellers comprehend.
5:58 Charlie is right, they can spontaneously combust and burn hotter than Thermite. Brought to you by the council for banning matches without a license.
Clown blinds guy
Doesn’t get arrested.
Mother gave me some money to buy some candy mice from the doll store but I spent it on a lizard and now Dave swims with mother in the fruit cellar.😈😈😈😈😈🐁🐁🐁🐁🐁🐁🐁
Fridges can't kill that's baloney
An explanation for those too young to know.
Up until the 1970's, refrigerators chiefly had something akin to an automobile latch like door handle. That is, it latched shut firmly upon closing. Combine this closure with a rubber gasket sealing the door opening, and this created a perfectly airtight seal. Many times, when old refrigerators were disposed of, they were simply carted out and abandoned. Numerous incidents occurred of some poor child, innocently exploring while playing, becoming trapped inside and suffocating to death. People were encouraged to remove the doors of old refrigerators, or drill out the latch mechanisms so they could no longer be securely closed.
