I was born here in the late 50's. My family were poor farmers. We had nothing "modern" agriculturally, and field work was done with a horse and plough/cart (dear Dolly, our shire), and sowing, harvesting, milking etc was all done the "old fashioned way". I only looked at this post out of curiosity to see if I may recognize anybody. This quickly changed to God! I want to go back there!

This was about the time I went to jersey for the first time and made me very tearful watching this. The evening scenes remind me so much of me and Richards mum as you use to get all dressed to go out and the island was full of night clubs like this where you could eat drink dance and watch a Cabaret , beautiful memories drowned in tears. 🥲

Sadly now lost forever. I used to holiday in the early 1980's, and even then it was magical. The last time I visited was 2020. The magic has completely gone, as have most of the hotel's and attractions.

Well, that's how it was a lifetime ago. Many fond memories of this "enchanted isle". Sadly, progress, hasn't moved us forwards here.

Very nostalgic. I grew up there in the 60s. Funny to see Kenny Lynch. Englebert Humperdink performed in the island when he was called Gerry Dorsey.

I must have lived in a different Jersey in the early 1960s. Most of this film looks as though it was made silently with the sound dubbed on in the edit. And the formal evening attire, I missed out on that. Oh, and I seem to remember a town called St Helier-with lots of shops. It's a pity we did not see Mr Battle (a UK celeb) so that we could figure out the exact year of filming.
