I used to go there all the time as a kid. Best times of my life with my nan and grandad there too. My mother lives nearby in Holland on sea so I still go back often now. Thanks for uploading.
@@johnshores4745 supermarkets moved in late 80;s that's when poor eating habbits came in. before then shops shut at 5pm you had to eat from your kitchen! your supermarket stock 75% ultra prossesed garbage!
@@alex-E7WHU I'm more concerned about now to be honest. I saw an elderly London ( cockney) couple call a single woman in her thirtys a f'ing C because she forget to put a divider on the conveyor belt of the checkout. Obviously not all Londoners are arseholes but there are enough to ruin the town.
As a teenager in the 80's times seemed so much simpler . Tnx for the memories
Went there for several holidays in the 1960's. Butlins was still open then and on the pier the steel stella was a great roller-coaster.

Lovely to see another video of old Clacton!
Love the seaside this is really interesting.
Late 80's?
Anyone go to the clacton pier raves??? absolutely Amazing Nights!!!
Yes, awesome nights 😊
You mean Oscars night club that used to be there right on the pier?
I used to work in little Harrisons arcade
loved the staff in the caffe next door
The shorter of the 2 presenters has a very familiar voice. Does anyone know who it is?
Speed boat ⛵ rides £1 .😅😅😅😅
Now it's milky coffee £3.50!!
As a local this about the time of the decline in Clacton. You certainly wouldn’t go filming there now you get mugged.. it’s a terrible place now…..
Bonito ambiente pero el agua esta muy fria😂 🇪🇸
Is that really what the pier looked like in the 80s???
God the place looks dead and decaying now :(
the pier is really nice now along with the seafront, what are you on about?? they just invested and built alot on the pavilion and pier
@@connor8372 What happened to all the games like archery, darts, hook a duck.
Their's just a log floom their now.
Nice report but the music doesn'r really fit into that decade.
London on sea 😡
They really have ruined Clacton.
Stop moaning about it, London brought you a lot of business back in the day.

Good times , no one bumping into you because they are looking down at their moron controller.
