I was born in '71, so I started the 80's in junior school and ended them clubbing. Happy days 😊
Me too, same year! If Conor thinks UK 80s kids programmes and public info ads are freaky, he ought to try the 70s...
Yeah, you need to look up Charlie the Cat, loved him!
Have you watched the skit of Charlie Says on yt? 😂 My daughter showed me it years ago. There's probably a few now.
Alan Wells won the 100m in Moscow (7.30). The US boycotted the Olympics, which gave him that chance. Just before that, John Lowe was completing the first ever televised nine-dart finish, which is the perfect game of 501- you score 180, 180, 141. The advert at 10.57 won a stack of awards. It's actually supposed to be the famous Dambusters raid, where Avro Lancaster bombers took a special payload of 'bouncing' bombs and destroyed one of the Ruhr dams, flooding the industrialised Ruhr valley and severely disrupting Germany's munitions manufacturing. The idea of course was that the German sentry starts saving the bouncing bombs like a soccer goalkeeper. The football (soccer) match at 8.40 was an incredible end to the season. Liverpool were top of the English league, and Arsenal were second. Incredibly the fixture scheduling had Arsenal going to Liverpool to play their last game. Going into that match they had the seemingly impossible task of needing to win by two goals to steal the title from their rivals. Right at the death, Michael Thomas scored that goal to take the title for the visitors. I watched that game live, it was remarkable. Just after that, the ski jumper is Eddie the Eagle Edwards. Britain doesn't do ski jumping - before Eddie decided to have a go, only one ski jumper had ever competed for Britain at the Winter Olympics. Eddie wasn't very good - he barely jumped far enough to be able to compete at all - but his spirit of giving it a go won the nation's hearts and he became a huge celebrity. A few years back a film was made about him called Eddie the Eagle, it's well worth a watch. 9.40 is Steve Cram. Britain had a spell of domination in middle-distance running during the 80's with three athletes winning multiple Olympic and World Championship medals. Cram was one, the others were Steve Ovett and Sebastian Coe.
I was a schoolteacher in the 1990s. The video of the electrocuted boys was indeed a public warning video of the dangers of electrical installations. I used it often in my lessons. It worked because it had incredible shock impact.
I remember in school we had to read a book, or a play (?) I can't remember , but it was about a few kids who were bullying another , and encouraged him to climb a pylon to retrieve their ball or kite, again I can't fully recall. And the bullied child was electrocuted, and we were then showed that PSA you used to show. This was in 2012
@@RendererEP But we still have kids "train-surfing" today even more. And many have been killed. Maybe they should show that clip again. But I think with TikTok etc it's a wate of time because they'll do anything for a dare.
Fun or not it worked better on me than the don't drink and drink ones, like when watch the don't drink and drive I can't take it seriously and laugh as how they do it but these electrocute ones I don't
The Cadbury's Caramel rabbit was voiced by everyone's favourtie Harry Potter cast member and crazy chat show guest - Miriam Margolyes
No way - and I fancied her! 😅
You looked shocked when you saw the explosion on the balcony of the Iranian Embassy? I know you love your military history if you haven’t seen anything on it you really must it was the first time the public at large got to see and found out what the SAS was 👌🏻 prior to this they was still a shadow regiment that very little people knew what they was and what they did 👍🏻
5th of May 1980, the day my little sister was born. My dad remembers more about the SAS that day than the birth of his child!!! 🤣
@@Spiklething probably one of the most legendary replies I’ve ever gotten on UA-cam 🤣🤣🤣 I’m sorry for your sister but this had me laughing so much 👌🏻🤣
The kids getting shocked was a public safety film. There was one in the 70s that still scares me today. It was warning kids about playing near water and had the grim reaper on it.
The 1980s in UK was amazing especially in Newcastle. And the movies and music. What a era ,
I was 15 at the start of the 80s and 25 at the end of it. The perfect time to experience the last great music decade. There was a lot of pop pap on mainstream radio but there was so much more, like the sublime Golden Brown by The Stranglers that was played on this vid.
Steve cram, Sebastian Coe and Steve Ovette were the golden boys of British athletics in the 80s
The two Steves were okay but Seb Coe was always as whinger...🏴
@@brigidsingleton1596 But he got his title.

Naturally !! In with the "In Crowd" -
"our Seb" !! 🥺
The 80s were great for music, zany comedy, and for the arrival of home computers. For me, however, it will always be the 60s which reign supreme - the dawn of the Age of Aquarius, my entry into the mysteries of teendom, and moving school from junior in London to senior in Cape Town. 🎉
Wow, what a stroll down memory lane…I was 15 and still at school in 1980, the 80’s is the decade which had the most impact on me…music, tv, movies, live gigs, world events, and in my personal life it was the decade I left school, started work, fell in love, broke up, met someone else, bought my first house, and got married. I still love the music from that era, the decade holds lots of happy memories.
I was born in 1980 so this was a huge nostalgia trip for me. The Fraggle Rock theme song still plays in my head on a regular basis.
Yeah me too, I still remember the words to the Fraggle Rock theme song lol. 😂
The kids getting electrocuted was from a public information film, PIFS were made to warn children about the dangers of various things including playing near railway lines,electrical sub stations,electrical pylons etc,the one that scared the crap out of me as a kid was called APACHES,it was about the dangers of playing in farm yards and was pretty horrific for a 9 year old to see.
I remembered every single thing from this video. I was a teenager in the 80s. It made me feel like I miss that time a bit. I am now going to go and listen to some "Madness" (who played the last song in that video) for a while...
"One Step Beyond" was brilliant.
Yeah public information films of the 1970s and 80s , there were lots of them also more scary than kids blowing up !
Ahhh, Apaches. The slurry pit was the worst in that one.
@@AndrewHalliwellThe terrifying screams of the girl whose stomach was being eaten away from drinking the poison was the one that got me.
That Michael Fish dismissive weather report becane famous because the "hurricane" that followed was so dramatic. Knocked down a huge number of trees in southern England, disrupted travel and effectively closed London for business for the day, thus disabling the Stock Market just when there was a massive crash in the American market.
There's YT video compilations of British public information films. Probably wouldn't show them today for fear of scaring people who have all grown up soft
I was born in thr 70s, grew up in the 80s in the U.K. nothing will beat the childhood I had, loved seeing the cartoons and tv shows, great nostalgic trip down memory lane. Love hearing your reactions, keep them coming.
The big explotion was the first time we saw the SAS at work,. Also i love Danger Mouse.
OMG, i can remember EVERYTHING in that video as if it was yesterday. Amazing how these things are still locked away. Good times becoming a teen in 1980 even though the country and the government are still in the same mess now.
That's John Lowe in 1984 throwing a 9-dart finish in the quarter-finals of a major UK darts tourney. To make it more relevant to a US viewer, imagine pitching a perfect game, or rolling a 300 in bowling.
He's from a small town about 10 miles away from where I was born. I can still remember seeing this back in the day, it was the first 9-dart ever televised. For this feat he won an insane amount of money, way more than the prize money he got for winning the actual tourney which was 12,000 pounds. For the 9-dart, he won 102,000 pounds ( equivalent to over half a million dollars in todays money ).
The 80s were fab , for me that was the best decade , I was 20 in 87 , I had a fun and well paid job before that in the early 80s school was a laugh . When a person went out to a night club or a restaurant in the evening they dressed smartly . I still have my suits deep in a corner of a wardrobe but would never fit into them now . I remember the cigarette machines in pubs etc and you would only get 16 or 17 cigarettes in the pack instead of 20 . I remember the slow change over from £1 notes to £1 coins most people preferred the notes over the coins . People tuned into Eastenders to see the sadness , unhappiness and violence nobody really wanted to see a happy ending .
you should watch the UK's public service films warning kids about various dangers, they were made by film students and recently graduated film makers who had an interest in horror movie making, some will mentally scar you!
Too many references to comment on. "Careful Ange that could've hit me" was a very famous scene from the soap opera EastEnders which is currently on the BBC four nights a week. Eddie the Eagle Edwards was Britain's first and only Winter Olympics ski jumper. The Young Ones was our first taste of the anarchic humour of Rick Mayall and Adrian Edmondson (Bottom and Blackadder)
That's gotta be a confusing compilation if you have never seen some of those events, adverts and shows. Shame they didn't have the Dangermouse music at the end
4:22 the actress screaming her head off is Anita Dobson (playing Angie Watts in the soap Eastenders). A few years later Anita married Brian May (guitarist - Queen). They both used to go to my hairdresser for their identical hairstyles.
An 80s teen film recommendation, Gregory's Girl. Think you might enjoy it. Very funny sweet film.
Yep that pretty much sums up my childhood
The kid getting the shock was a public information film.
Had all my kids in the 80s, my eldest boy drove me mental wanting to listen to Karma Chameleon over and over and over again, he's 40 in February i might buy him a copy for his birthday! Anyone here remember the rude version of the Fraggle Rock song?
He didn't notice Lord flashheart in the young ones.
Thank you that was a great nostalgia trip for me. I was 21 through to 31 in the 80’s. I’m one of your more mature viewers. Love your channel .
I was born in the early 60s so as a kid the 70s was the best for me but the best kids tv series of the 80s at the end there Dangermouse.
He's amazing. He's fantastic.
Wherever there is danger he'll be there...😊🐭🐹❤😊🏴❤️🇬🇧🖖
The dart player came to my local pub and I got his autograph,I'm going back many years.
I remember all of it, so enjoyable, love to see more please. ❤❤❤
I remember pound coins being introduced...didn't Scotland have pound notes for decades after?
I use to train for a hockey team that had 3 of the GB Olympic team in it,2 of them were related to my school friend
God, I thought I'd blocked that kid in the green jacket getting blasted to kingdom-come completely out of my mind, but the memories came flooding back the SECOND I saw the blonde hair and that sodding jacket! Completely traumatising - and I swear this was accidentally tagged onto the start of one of my videos (VHS tapes) onto which we'd recorded something like 'Top of the Pops'. Wasn't there another like this with equally awful man-made fibre outfits and bad hair involving a railway line?? On the subject of terrible fashion, I also remember being shown on TV the dangers of shell suits going up in flames - not to mention harrowing yearly ads about firework safety! The 1980s was a dangerous time, when the scars could be both physical and psychological.
Yay! Love this. More please. Thanks ✌
I loved your reaction to the kids PSA. They were all of a similarly graphic ilk. There was one with a kid drinking weed killer out an empty lemonade bottle from the garden shed. The kid wakes up screaming during the night and is seen coughing up blood everywhere. The advert of The sexy rabbit for Cadbury's Caramel was voiced by Miriam Margolyes who I know you've reacted to on the Graham Norton Show.
I was born in 1979 in the UK 🇬🇧and this video brings back memories of growing up in the 80s
Wow. The music took me right back ❤
There were terrifying ads warning of every conceivable danger.
Michael Fish became well known as he was told to report the incoming hurricane but he said not to worry as there isn't and after it people experienced the hurricane anyway
80s was great for music, movies, TV, crazy fashion and hairstyles, crazes, jingles…. now companies just pay royalties for songs, but I remember so many jingles. You check check out The Rock and Roll Years
The theme tune to Tales of the Unexpexted heralded my bedtime. I used to sit silently hoping mum had forgot bedtime but I never got past the end of the theme tune.
Born 1979 and i actually remember seeing all of that, even if it was a re-run.
That explosion on the balcony was John McAleese SAS during the Iranian embassy siege
The good old days I grew up in the 80s got away with everything and I remember all this just brilliant
OMG. You are making me feel my age as well as nostalgic. Born in the 70's,a child of the 80's. Everyone old enough and British,..together now.. ''DANGER MOUSE. He's the Fastest.He's the Greatest Secret Agent in the World. Wherever there is danger ,he'll be there. DANGER MOUSE.Did de did de duh dud dadda da dah''.Ulyssess 31 was kinda disturbing.The Danger Game had me on edge with that zappy thing chasing the contestants across the grid. Climbing over loads of trees blown down in the hurricane,to do my paper round as a 13 year old.Knightmare,equally nervy with that life ebbing from the skull icon while the kids fumbled about in their helmets..Jayce & the Wheeled Warriors.A finger of Fudge stained fingers,conker fights. Going out Penny for the Guy, earning pocket money for Guy Fawkes Night,now a forgotten tradition.Writing rude words on my speak and spell
that explosion was the SAS moving in to end the siege of the Iranian Embassy in 1980 - the whole country saw it covered on the TV news shortly after they went in
Epic soundtrack ...remember all these 😊
My kids were born in the 1980 s . Superted was Welsh and I read the books in welsh and they watched it in welsh . With my children . Read the books lots 😊and lots had great fun with them 🙃😊
The one where the woman throws glass at a man is a show called EastEnders be on TV many years and still is
The white building was an SAS trying tp free hostages from the building.
I was born in '68, so all of this is familiar, seems like a world away, yet like yesterday, some great tunes.apart from 'she who will remain nameless' seeing as im a north east england girl, great video.
The Trio advert at 3:38 should remind you of the dinner party scene in Beetle Juice
My cousins used to live next door to an annoying man called Eric. They referred to him as Bananaman.
The SAS soldier setting off the grenade was at the ending of the Iranian Embassy seize - have a look at the videos of it.
I remember in the early 80s British pop music was just brilliant. Before all the TV talent shows and manufactured pop stars ruined it all. I still have a big box of 80s knock off music cassettes stashed away somewhere that i bought while working abroad.
I was born in the 50s, so have seen it all! My kids were born in the 80s, but in a far away land. When people talk about British 80s, I have no idea. I was a 70s lad.
I certainly remember Band Aid though, as my daughter was born that year.
British ads were very aggressive.
Three dart finish.
That is assuming that any of our videos will still exist in 100 years. I wonder if people said that in 1923?
I'm sure you meant 9 dart finish
I was in my 20s in the 80s...absolutely fantastic time..
The sexy Cadbury's Caramel Rabbit was voiced by Miriam Margolyes and voted in the 3rd most sexy cartoon character after Jessica rabbit and Betty boop lol
SAS Troops Storm Iranian Embassy 1980.....Probably something you'd like to look into...Short clip was shown...
I was only 7 by the end of the 80s, so in some ways more of a 90s child. However, i have many vivid memories from the 80's.
The brief clip of the gunmen in balaclavas and grenades going off inside the building was the storming of the Iranian Embassy in Princes Gate, London in May 1980. 6 Arab separatist terrorists had forced their way into the Iranian embassy and taken hostages. A siege of 7 days ensued, during which the terrorists started executing hostages. Soon after the first was killed and his body dumped on the street, the order was given by Mrs Thatcher's Government to the SAS to storm the embassy which they did live on evening television. All the terrorists were killed save one who was captured and one hostage died (at the hands of the terrorists).
The siege took place during the period of the long occupation of the US Embassy in Tehran and captivity of the staff there during the Carter administration.
The Iranian islamist regime showed no gratitude for gaining their embassy back and, instead, demanded that the UK pay for the damage, making it a condition for the restoration of diplomatic relations.
Some off my favourites form the British 80s.... Kenny Everett, Robin of Sherwood & Supergran theme.
Born 80, some memories here.
I was born in 1966 and fully remember the 1980s, they were a terribly violent time in the UK
The one with the explosion was the seige of the irian embassy 2002 when the sas moved on to stop it
i was born in 1980
Dogtanian and the Three Muskehounds was my fav as a little kid
loved super ted
liked banana man but bananas make me up chuck
the darts clip showing the first ever 9 dart finish
thanks mate for giving me flashbacks
I predict that a run of PSA films are in the future.
Was born in '81. Dogtanian and the Three Muskehounds was the first soundtrack I ever bought (well that my Mum bought for me). I must've been about 5 or 6 but I listened to it every day in between watching Michael Jackson videos. Fraggle Rock is legendary.
Remember the hurricane was out in it 😂
Born 1970 in England and have always had a thing for 50s USA :)
imagine (as we look) seeing this now etc ...... look forward 20-30 yrs..... someone doing what you are doing will be looking Back at Thicktok videos i know which i'd want to look back at ..... makes you wanna cry
Videos like this always turn me into a sentimental old git. I was born in 1972.
2:02
Wasn’t Wattle, Wotsit -Watt’s friend - one of Rupert Grint’s younger brothers?
With his hair dyed a more reasonable colour, of course?
older I would of thought, Rupert Grint was born 1988
The 1980s were depressingly crap. I grew up in them & the nostalgia is ridiculous.
Weather man says there isn't going to be a hurricane.No he wasn't right. 🤔
You should start listening to 80s music
We still have our milk delivered, in glass bottle by the milkman …
Are you starting with Part 2? I can’t find Part 1 in your videos. Or did you upload them in the wrong order? Or did you react to Part 1 a while ago?
This brings so many great memories, although I was born in 1976 most of my growing up years was in the 80s, I remember all these lol, makes me feel old. Loved Fraggle Rock never missed an Episode. 😂👌
The muppets were massive in the uk at that time
Loved that. child of 1970, the 80,s were my teenage years. 😎😎
Ah the miners strike, Iranian embassy siege, early 80s dreadful unemployment. Great days
wow frash backs i wos born in the 70s
I was never a fan of banana man
Where's part 1 ?
If you see a British kid in a school uniform....it's an everyday occurrence over here !
The kids blowing up was an ad for NOT playing in electricity power stations ! VERY EFFECTIVE !
Check his videos. The first part was about 4 months ago.
I may be wrong and a bit old-fashioned, but I had the feeling there weren't so many "chavs" around back then. London's changed, the same as B'ham and Manchester...for the worse.
So many memories. My entire youth. You should check out some British public information films from the 70's & 80's. They terrified me but in a good way. A bit like watching a scary movie. To this day I will never fly a kite near an electricity pylon or throw a frisbee into a substation. But I still love Roland Rat and have my original Transformers toys safely packed away with my Atari 2600.
I was born 99 but seem to recognise most of these 😅
I miss the 80s
Ahh the 80's good times 😃👍
I remember recording the top 40 on my casette recorder paused any time a shit song came on . Fab times 😊
Danger mouse and banana man 👍🏻
80s cartoons were the best. Thundercats, He-man , count Duckula, Dangermouse, inspector Gadget, Garfield, Ninja Turtles, Dungeons and Dragons, scooby Doo , Fraggle rock.
The Young Ones is the best TV show evvah
😮 My late Mum (who died aged 98yrs+7mnths in Oct 2015) played mixed hockey (with male & female) soldiers during time off in WWII so your America's "female only" hockey teams seems odd to me!!
Strikes, football hooligans , IRA bombings and i met my wife..
