Scarborough was a very different place then but it hasn't stopped me comming to live here 2 years ago, I still love the place.

For a family with young kids in the 70's & 80's Scarborough had it all and was probably the best family seaside resort in the UK. Still looks like a lovely place with the wonderful beach and grand architecture, but sadly it's missing most of the fun attractions that made it special for kids. I haven't been for 40 years, but to this day it still remains my favourite holiday destination and nowhere else has come close.

Went to Scarborough in 79,when it was still all there.spa,opera house,floral hall,futurist.treewalk wonderland,naval warfare,castle,,mini rail,zoo & marineland,boating lake,water chute,outdoor pool,& cliff lifts.Max Jaffa,Marti Caine,Freddie Starr & Ken Dodd .Now That'S a seaside resort!

Brilliant video bringing back many happy memories of holidays in Scarborough

So many of the wonderful attractions have now gone, so very sad. Scarborough was so much better in the 70's and 80's. I still love the town though.

So so soooooooo many happy & long memories. Love Scarborough.

Wonderful place back then; not the same now but still love it.

Went every year during the 6 week holiday during the 70s with my cousin's 13 of us altogether in St Mary's house just below the church happy days happy times looking back now with a touch of sadness.

cool video my home town where i live. so many thing have appeared and disappeared since this video .i used two love the rocking boats on the beach .and i lived right next to Scarborough mere so i was on the Hispaniola pirate ship digging coins up all the time .as far tourist atractions go theres nothing like whats in this film any more .its all about the council making money .all the cheep fun has gone to make way for big companies to buy the land and charge a fortune .or its just simply left to rot..we still have donkeys though even them aren't 50p any more 2.50p for a stricked 10 meter walk in a circle .

Other than the cars and flairs, this could have been filmed yesterday. Love Scarborough. We go every year.

when we were Britain's

The greatest seaside town in Britain

My happy place ❤

Wow.

We were there that year,saw Ken Dodd and Jimmy Tarbuck.

Looks like it was filmed yesterday on an iPhone.

Assalamu alaikom nice

78, , last year i was there, stayed at trafalgar square overlooking the criicket ground

What was the park called where the 2 big dinosaurs used to be.

South Bay Pool, gone, Marvels gone, Hispaniola no longer operates on the Mere, Opera House, gone, Futurist Gone, Floral Hall gone...The town is a shadow of its former self unfortunately.

What a lovely look down memory lane sadly decimated now with open door economic migrant policy went last week and full of Roma loitering and cheapening the place sad

Also suburb of Toronto, nicknamed Scarberia. This one looks more fun!

Barely Changed x

Bad bird guitarist died like cats scratching

Good lord the guitarist sounds like he's scratching his nails down a blackboard. Mute the audio!

Anyone has pictures of the nigh clubs in the 70’s, Victoria’s, Tiffany’s, .....?

Ah the 70's, best decade of my life, when I was a child, and still growing up! Harder times, but simpler times. No mass migration of spongers, no forced jabs, or two tier mass population with the jabbed and un jabbed, decent music, horrid food, but happiness in abundance. Please take me back!!!

Almost 50 years ago - doesn't really look any different.

That guitar playing is terrible! The odd string swipe is natural, but every single cord change? That's lazy and sloppy playing!
