Sorry to ask like this but if not from you, maybe a fellow visitor might have it and can upload an episode or two...Sunday mornings on BBC 2, there used to be a program called GARBA I believe it used to air around 10:30 / 11am... would love to see a few episodes if possible...
I'm sat here watching the news on BBC2 when I was 9 years old. Why? I don't even like cricket or horses. Why did you upload it, you're stranger than I am for watching it. I now know why my kids have started giving my that knowing smirk as if to say its time to start looking for a home for you.
You forget that after PMs leave office they don’t just disappear and that actually they carry on leading the party and making speeches and all the rest of it! Just like Callaghan did.
I'm a Tory but I think Callaghan was one of the best PMs we've had since 1945. I think he was quite conservative with a small c which is probably why I like him.
It is 14 December 2019, and little seems to have changed. The Labour Party is in-fighting about membership of the EEC in 1980 and the EU in 2019. Tony Benn asks how long it might be before the UK eventually pulls out of Europe but there are Remainers even then, trying to stifle him. Nowadays it it his own son trying his damndest to stop us leaving. The more things change, the more they stay the same.
We'd just voted to remain in the 1975 referendum. Your comment hasn't aged well, has it? The people knew in the 1975 referendum what they seem to have forgotten in 2016, although now have woken up again. Leaving the EU would have been catastrophic then, just as it has been catastrophic now.
The news was always a cliffhanger.
I'd just turned 12 years old and in the 2nd year !!!!!
Its 40 years ago and these news clips bring back fond memories!!!!!!
Times were simpler!!!!!!!
Same age - playing out on my Grifter and going for fish and chips on Friday afternoons.
Same age. Had a blue grifter and going youth'club' on Thursdays
Everything's simpler when you're a kid, in any age
My biggest worry in 1980 was time coming when i would have to leave the children's home in to the big wide world.
Hope it turned-out ok. Cheers.

Dull and Misty in northern England. Sounds like normal for that time of year there.
Tony Benn was right on eec. 100%
I think we've subsequently found out that he could not have been more wrong

Sunny Jim resisted calls for a General Election back in 1978 even though he had lost his majority and the authority to govern.
@@carlkane7544 The Blair years didn't help either.
Without Boycott to run him out, Derek Randall scored a century for Notts so Boycs picked on Goochie instead; playing the exact same shot.
How posh she sounded. RP on stilts.

Of course there were remainers "even then", we'd only voted to join about 7 years before.
