Dungeness B is an advanced gas-cooled reactor (AGR) power station consisting of two 1,496 MWt reactors, which began operation in 1983 and 1985 respectively. Dungeness B was the first commercial scale AGR power station to be constructed. (only 3 years after this show) They ran nearly 40 years.
Originally broadcast 8 May 1986. I watched this show every week and it is amazing to see ideas that were futuristic at the time are common place today, then we have the things that were never seen again lol.
The world was more technologically advanced back in the seventies than it is today, we were regularly walking on the moon and flying on our holidays at supersonic speeds. Today we barely get into orbit and passenger aircraft fly at less than half the speed.
Just because something is possible doesn't make it worthwhile. Flying cars were a major vision of the future for 20th century people but they're ultimately just a recipe for high-altitude traffic accidents. We don't have supersonic jets but we do have pocket sized supercomputers, completely realistic 3D rendering, and the entire human genome sequenced. Perspective
Does anyone know when this classic tv program was broadcasted? I think it was in the same week as the Chernobyl Nuclear Disaster in April 1986. I was only 16 years old. I think Maggie Philbin mentions it at the end of the program 58:35
Wikipedia en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomorrow%27s_World says first episode in 1965, so this would have been 1986 sometime as the 21st anniversary special. I haven't managed to confirm the month :(
@@simonlovett151 They probably recorded it in early May 1986. Chernobyl almost never is mentioned as "last week's serious accident in Soviet Union", also it's @49:10.

To this day they struggle with offering flight times longer than a few minutes with fully charged tanks. Pollution and air traffic considerations are another reason why these are still science fiction in practice. If jet packs ever come out on the open market, they'll be subject to both licensing controls *and* minimum costs to control distribution and use of them. It'll be another "Only for the Rich" job, alas. :-/ OTOH, I look forward to the era of autonomous aerial vehicles.

Late April to early May 1986.

Good old Prince Charles. They didnt predict that he would marry a puppet wife, have two kids by her and all the time he was carrying on with a married women in the name of love, more like in the name of adultery.!! That his puppet wife would mysteriously die in a car 'accident' in a tunnel in Paris, he'd go on to marry the woman he was cheating with. and that our royalist media would gloss over the scandal and sell it to the nation as a love story !!! Time for Charles to become King? NEVER !!

Thursday Tv was great in the 70-80's. Problem was nothing new was happening in science and tech. come the 90's. Many programmes were medical based, bit like Horizon, got boring. So they fizzled out.
