Charley says (no, not that one) that Britain’s new towns are great.
Meet Charley, your jovial cartoon guide to Britain’s changing towns and cities. Interestingly, the New Towns Act of 1946 is not explicitly mentioned in this film, with the recommendations presented as if they had been conjured up by a popular movement. Halas & Batchelor worked with the Central Office of Information on seven Charley films which communicated many of the landmark policies of the post-war Labour Government.

Halas & Batchelor did some outstanding work. The character design and animation here is beautiful. Out here in the USA,most people remember them for “DoDo,The Kid From Outer Space” which uses limited animation.
H&B also dabbled in outsourced animation for American companies like KIng Features (Popeye) and Rankin/Bass (The Jackson 5).
Love this made me smile so much!
When the dream was very much alive
it stayed for a while at least:)
Christ u live in a much nicer much safer place 😂😂 grow up ur life isn’t that hard
Anybody came here because of Cities : past and future?
I've been looking for this.
I grew up in Runcorn New Town. Most everybody disliked it. In the long run the landscaping was its redeeming element.They planted thousand of trees and bushes they are now big and hide the harsh cement architecture and concentrated housing layout.
This where the saying ‘a proper charley’ originated. Churchill’s opposition used it as a derogatory term and it stuck
This film need to be shown today for today's problems.
When new towns were great to live in the 50s and 60,s as a kid .
And 40s (Apart from thr war)
''And lots of Pubs, right next door to me''
can not be more British than that.
Now known as the 'controversial for some' 15-minute cities. Good ideas never grow old.
Total dominance of public space by car drivers was a historical blip, which lasted for a few decades in the later 20th century and gradually disappeared in the early 21st, starting first in Europe and quickly spreading to the rest of the world.
Great animation
Someone should remake this
That's where Sim City comes in.
Nice
charley is a lad
2:14 The Rapture
Well, not quite so many stabbings, shootings and occasional acid-throwings then. But that's progress.
Hello
Strange people never consider building underground, taking advantage of Earth insulation.
People like natural light, which tends not to travel very far into the Earth. But if you could solve this issue somehow, then people would likely to do it.
Skylights are one way help with that.
@@thoughtsurferzone5012 Skylights require flat surface that is unoccupied above, though, negating much of the advantage of building this way.
Probably the MASSIVE COST OF DIGGING
Hmm, I've always felt a few skyscrapers would've been good
