I remember these. Adverts have a powerful effect just when I don't think they do. The B R passangers are still on the train waiting for services to resume

Well to their credit, they only ever claimed to be 'getting there'. They never actually claimed to actually get you there. British Rail fulfilling the only promise they were capable of. A journey that may never ever end - at least not in the place you hoped it would.

Scorching temperatures, the tarmac melting everywhere, our mum complaining about the blanket amount of giant flying ant invasion all over the washing. The drought that produced the share a bath posters lol But…. For us kids that meant days and days of perfect summer holidays beaching weather!

Sometime second half of the 70s I think these were shown and most were viewed on our 21" Ferguson colour TV. Recognise most of the voice overs but their names escape. Richard Briers, Michael Jayston, Ray Brooks, the feller from It Ain't Half Hot Mum I managed though. Strange thing is that I've got an adblocker installed on my PC😅

These were made when Britain was just about still recognisable. Whites are not in TV ads now. The country has metamorphasised into Zimbabwe.

And no endlessly screened adverts for post menopausal women pissing in their yoga pants and laughing about it with their mates. Or adverts championing homosexuality and other sexual perversions. And no non-stop adverts telling everyone how gambling can improve your social life. The ITV version of the Morcambe & Wise Christmas Show was totally crap and a huge disappointment. I hope Eric enjoyed the extra money he earned from it because he threw away years of hard work and perseverance. Not to mention a lot of fans.

For those who complain about flat-pack furniture from Ikea, they clearly haven't experienced the joys of MFI furniture. As terrible as the food in the seventies, if not worse.
