Well, in 1957 no guarantee you'd have a Bath in the house, tin bath or go down the baths once a week. Wasn't til the 60's when the economy began to really take off that people really began extending and adding proper kitchens and bathrooms to older terraced houses.
I thought it was. But not shure. She gone now. All those films she did .. and the Brighton belle to London from Brighton to work. Yes those were the days my friend I thought they never end. To quote mary Hopkins song?? Yes 40s 50s 60s and 70s. We've had the best. . Now look at us. ?? 2023. April. And full of illegal immigrants. ?

So you drive 5 km, park it on the side of the road, take the budgies outside, heat a kettleful of water, and take a sponge bath in a cramped van without a toilet but windows everywhere, hoping nobody peeks in. Who could say no?
I just scoured the internet looking for pics of the interior, and every picture I could find of one of these just shows two bench seat/bed conversions, and that stove unit, with a tall cabinet to the left of hit, too small to be anything but storage. I'm thinking that bathtub was a bit of artistic license.
My friend brought an old pistol to the range. The booklet that came with it said “This pistol should not be fired by men with weak hands or women.” Who cares!
Why do I have a feeling that when this narrator found out about women becoming astronauts and fighter pilots and world leaders he ended up having a stroke.
That does not necessarily mean that the world has moved forward more quickly. In many ways it has moved backwards - it still benefits the minority, not the majority. Think about it.
Yes...you're right. I grew up in the 50s and he seemed to have a monopoly on all these short films in the cinema. Usually on just before the big picture and we were all rushing to buy our ice cream before it started. Happy days!
The narrator was Eamon Andrews, who became the host on this is your life. Got to remember that not everyone had TVs back then, the pictures and Pathe news, or look at life was contemporary news/happenings, social media spreads it globally instantly now.
Of course it was supposed to be. They did have a sense of humour in the 1950s you know, and Pathe were in the entertainment business. This is a light-hearted little magazine reel shown in cinemas before the main feature.
Whoa, I’ve apparently been forgetting to put on my dress and heels when I go to play outside. And my husband! He has absolutely been dressing all wrong. 😂. OMG. I can’t believe how funny this is now.
We had a ice cream man in a van like this throughout my childhood 60's 70's western suburbs of Sydney. I bet his grandson still drives it around today selling ice creams on a weekend to all the new suburbs southwest of Sydney now! That music tune! Like the Pied Piper attracting kids to their mom's begging for ice cream. It wasn't Mr Whippy... Oh no.. it was simply Walters Service.
“Luxurious caravan” = a tin box on wheels with a flimsy table. Bathroom = room with a bath tub that appears out of nowhere. Maybe the sink doubles as a toilet. And indeed, why not? 😂
_" lost in a flutter of feminine confusion."_ I can't get enough of this narrator.
I know, you would be linched now!
It's all filmed outside their house too!! They probably got a Guinea each to shoot this 🤣
😄
Like a woman she's always forgetting something 🤣 different world back then!
don't forget your budgey
Tragic that misogyny has gone so out of fashion in recent times.
The idea of a famous actress going off in her Dormobile to sit watching the rain on the seafront at Southend or somewhere fills me with delight
you sir, are brilliant
It’s not a door mobile they had sliding doors
That's the British for you..
Feminine Confusion would be a great female punk bands name
Would be dope as a G.L.O.S.S. cover band~ lmao can I steal it
@@TheOnlyHandsomeJack sure but if you make it big with that name and become a millionaire you gotta buy me a home on wheels lol :)
Love how they drove 3 blocks away just so she can take a bath 🤦🏾♂️
true magnificent lol
While he was out golfing........she pulled the curtain across. Neighbour over perhaps from three blocks back?
Не уверен можно ли это назвать ванной.

But we haven't seen the important secne before the bath 🤣
"Like a woman she' is always forgetting something!" you wouldn't get away with saying that now and rightly so! Charming film, loved Dora Bryan.
Yes it is a huge crime now. We are so much happier for it. Cant wait till 1984 is fulfilled.
I thought it was. But not shure. She gone now. All those films she did .. and the Brighton belle to London from Brighton to work. Yes those were the days my friend I thought they never end.

@@dulls8475 Oh look its tons of fun, rolling down the hill in all its frustration.
It's all so delightful and beautiful. How slim everyone was back then,
Before KFC, McD and Subway hit the UK.
they introduced low fat foods in 1970 and processed foods full of sugar
I love the closing comment: "whatever will they think of next?"
Imagine a computer... but it fits in your POCKET?!

Oh thanks for sharing that. Wish we had the time machine.
What happened to Cecil Gibson ( the budgie ) ?

Awesome Art Deco house. Fascinating to watch this film. c1950s was the last time Britain was civilised.
The Chimes, Bishop's walk, London.
And then those rebellious Beatles and Rolling Stones came along !
"Like a women, she's always forgetting something", so true. Ah, the good old days.
T.L. ................there is going to be sever ramifications for this very regretable line !!!!!
@@dannycalley7777 I'm sure the writers and producers of this film are getting severe social media lash back. If their still alive.
Social media was a mistake
she remembered to pack the booze lol.
Yes so true
the good old days and how i miss them. :)
Looks like an ice cream van.
same bedford van, had many versions, esp ice cream van
@@jusb1066 i once bought acid from a hippie in a bedford at a festival.
Did you try hard?
@@jonathankennedy3044 cooked you mean?
@@user-xi4jn8xh4l was it good is the question lol
To arrive at the theatre in that must have been amazing. The ladies were beautiful. Especially the second one.
Looked like the start of a Carry On film.
1 and 2 and 1 and GASP !!!
@@teknotony Ooh er missus! 😂
Nice tiny motorhome. These are still much loved, nothing like a camper-van for getting food to-go, and eating in their van's booth table.
Heavens, don't forget the bird! I never travel without mine.
One of these parked up my road and still in regular use.
What a kick! Wearing heels and pearls to spend time outside, so to speak. And bring your own birds 😂😂😂
I love these clips from England's? Past .
I like the name: "Bedford Calthorpe Home Cruiser" Makes me think of the Wagon Queen Family Truckster
All squished up in their "luxurious caravan" as the rain pours down all around them (British weather).
I had one of those , mine was green and white , I called him smokyJoe lovely little budgie
Extremes of simplicity and beauty ...
I love the van 😍
I could watch these all day😄
Ha! It’s the original van life!!!
“Although like a woman she’s always forgetting something”
GOLD
That's some epic house they came from. Probably worth around 10k then !!
And now maybe 10M. :)
When life was simpler.👍
Because men never forget anything.
Never forget to "Cunningly choose a spot near a golf course".
That's a month planning, right there.
Ohoh, someones...TRIGGERED, REEE
Obviously one man forgot something....
but she's a silly woman
On the back "If this van's a-rockin', don't bother knockin'"
So nice they take the budgie on holiday with them 🐥
All thats missing is sid james’ cackle
I soooo want that vehicle!
"Altough, like a woman she's always forgetting something"
Yes.
the best van have ever seen is this
What a cracking van
So you drive 5 km, park it on the side of the road, take the budgies outside, heat a kettleful of water, and take a sponge bath in a cramped van without a toilet but windows everywhere, hoping nobody peeks in. Who could say no?
I love going to the great outdoors so I can sit in my vehicle and drink tea. Just like at home, except a lot more cramped! Fun!
5km? Where are you from. It seemed about 1 mile to me. We don’t use KM
but it does have a toliet
@@knuckles1206 I bet that's fun with all four of them in the back.
They said it had a bathroom! And what's the deal with the tub? Where was it and how does it work anyway?
I just scoured the internet looking for pics of the interior, and every picture I could find of one of these just shows two bench seat/bed conversions, and that stove unit, with a tall cabinet to the left of hit, too small to be anything but storage. I'm thinking that bathtub was a bit of artistic license.
The Bath tub is under the front seat area probably filled by and extending faucet hose. You have to be civilized and let the lady have her bath 🛀
Their BATHroom means to bathe in room. Haha
@@richardvalitalo3670 Americans watching this were probably expecting her to take a dump.
@@GSimpsonOAM they’re stupid that’s why
British vehicles from this era have a cool style
My friend brought an old pistol to the range. The booklet that came with it said “This pistol should not be fired by men with weak hands or women.” Who cares!
Yes life can be such strain...makes me weep so much ...real struggle to pick up my swollen pay packet...
Can remember when I was a kid dad had a Bedford doormobile
Love this
Great to see they dressed for the occasion.
The ancestor of the tiny home
The soundtrack for this newsreel is "Egg Flip" by Dennis Berry, performed by the Symphonia Orchestra conducted by Ludo Philipp.
Wow this is brilliant! Love it 😎
Love it!
A ton of recent comments with this one. This is like premium 1960s.
Thank you.
So that's where Arkwright's van started off.
Dora rocks champagne and a bath. Flutter that!
I wonder what happened to the vehicle, does anyone know?
Without doubt it rusted to nothing.
@@Daz555Daz Well it was a CA - that was their stock-in-trade...
No it was recently at the mobile homes exibition on glasgow showing this film ,
@@grahamhill9499
Are you sure it wasn't a glass fibre replica - as most CA Bedfords really have all gone to that rust-filled scrapyard, in the sky?
New age Travellers
That's video aged so well now its 66 years old 😮 it feels like it is filmed in the 1990s
Even the RV's and conversion vans now don't have bath tubs.
Are we all just going to ignore the fact the budgie has the most regal double-barrell name I've ever heard?!
Now this is what forestry forest should be aspiring to ....
His old van was better, I think.
Forestry forest !!!where the crockpot?
wonderful!
Amo este canal💖love this channel💖a lot.🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Poor birdie
happy halcyon days
I want this car!!!
There is one of these vans coming up for sale in a classic car auction very soon!!! End of March 2021.
They get decent money too.

Bellissimo!!!
I like to see the full version of this.
Very practical.
Man, the 50s-60s narrator is literally the same guy across whatever video he narrates.

awesome
It's amazing!
"Like a woman she's always forgetting something". Ouch!
Woww amazing car
Sad to see those imprison birds on that small metal bars. Fortunately nowadays people are more aware of the suffering of birds and animals in cages.
Oh, if those interior walls could talk............................
You couldn't make this today with a month full of Sundays. That is a neat camper though.
I like the curved windows around the roof.
"Although like a woman she is always forgetting something" 💀
“Like a woman, she is always forgetting something.” Ahh, the good old days, when people were not offended by ‘sexist’ statements.
I am offended now that we cant make them.
Huh, where did that tub come from?
So you leave your lovely large house to spend time in a tin can....I dont think so!!!
What is it ?? the tardis
Once upon a time before Instagram and tiktok....life is so simple
The car has radio what will they think of next' lol amazing
Is this really 1957....its a colour, clear too!!!
Lol! She can't stop acting! Looks like an ice-cream van. :0)
Whoa, I’ve apparently been forgetting to put on my dress and heels when I go to play outside. And my husband! He has absolutely been dressing all wrong. 😂. OMG. I can’t believe how funny this is now.
Nie ma to jak weekendowy wypad w garniturze:)
Impressive or not bad at all. Where did that bathtub come from. I love that 1950s bliss.
Cell phones makes it reassuring to leave home in an RV... yet something is lost.

Awsome
Dormobiles were once popular with Police Forces. They were very quiet and could sneak up behind you before you knew it!
“Luxurious caravan” = a tin box on wheels with a flimsy table.
Bathroom = room with a bath tub that appears out of nowhere. Maybe the sink doubles as a toilet. And indeed, why not? 😂
That's just begging for a rover v8 (190bhp twin plenhem) bike rack (mtb enduro) and roof rack for a couple of mini mal surfboards😆
The tub is the seat? Nice.
Bath tub? At the very most there was two inches of water in that bath. Possibly enough for Dora to wash her toes but nothing else.
The only thing missing is, "Chocks Away"
