Go back and watch this in the lowest resolution for that real old time feel.

I just waited for him to continue talking, and his friends answer him with silent movie comment screens.

Haha I love how they're sending messages via pigeon, but use vinyls and video tapes at the same time

I nearly rubbed my eyes through my skull before realising that my eyes weren't fudged but that the screen was just going old timey grey. But I'll tell you what, I may be from the mid 90's, but the 60's were the best, I remember it like it was yesterday. Quality.

Thursday has become my favourite day of the week

1:17 That stupid little laugh after "steamship" made my day so much better 😅

I was waiting for the projector to burn through the film near the end!

Rewatching this, I just caught that right before the sketch ends, the sound is the sound my dad's old film projector used to make at the end of a reel. Just missing the FLAP FLAP FLAP FLAP FLAP of the loose end of film as it slaps the machine, going round and round:-D Oh, man, did that take me back.

"The sooner we get that sundial fixed, the better." 😜

Oh, do come to Denmark. The vast majority of your sketches can easily be understood outside Ireland.

I like the transition from colour to black and white

When I started work in a law firm in Paris over 40 years ago, when you had to send an urgent document to a client for signature in another area of Paris you would take the typed document to the post office, which would then roll up the document, put it in a screwed metal tin, then place it in a huge pneumatic tube which was then relayed through an underground system to the nearest post office of the client ! Or sometimes I would have to take the document myself (by metro or bus) then bring the signed one back!

Fun fact: this is the first Foil Arms and Hog video to show the new logo at the end of the sketch.

Love it, lads! Thanks for always cheering me up. Congratulations on 100,000 subscribers :-)

Fading to black & white was brilliant mates. ❤️

I've got the zeppelin booked for Thursday 😂😂

Kids nowadays will never know the thrill when a casette tape gets jammed and you need to use a pencil to fix it! (Inevitably when you're in a hurry for a family gathering!) or VHS not being rewinded, libraries I think even started charging people who didn't do it, lol.

This deserves to be a Monday Vintage episode now

I was fully expecting the sketch to end as a silent movie

0:45 They couldn't decide where the pigeon at LOL

Byzantium is the original name, not Constantinople...

The black and white gets me every time. When I watch it during the evening I always think it is the bed time mode (Android) that sets off. Until I realize it's the edit in the video.

Haha! The sound of the tape getting toward the end! 🤣🤣

Great video! Sent from my Commodore 64

I forgot all about having to rewind VHS tapes!

The "leeches" always remind me of the movie Stand by me. Another old classic.

Extra points for adding Labyrinth

Hope this will never get old

New favourite channel. Ye are amazing. Have me in laughing fits on each video

Do you guys hate watching ads because every third ad is one of you.

i wanna show this to my parents, always nagging about how it was so much better 50 years ago.

I watched this on an Etch A Sketch.

Oh my god TELETEXT! I had completely forgotten about that.

'Be kind.....Rewind'

As a 1990s child who grew up without electricity and running water and had an outhouse. I know you can survive and live your life. But it's nice to have running water that's not you running to a well bucket. We weren't the Amish just my parents house burnt down and they had to move into the grandparents old house that needed repairs and the windmill fell over and they didn't have the money to fix things or update. When we got electricity we used the old 1950s TV because it worked. And I played with my dad's old toys. Which I know exactly what year he got them since it was in his photos. So not pristine toys in our family. I played with marbles older then dad and learned how to throw a top with the string and all that stuff and read old comic books that frustratingly I couldn't get a copy of the unfinished storyline because it was old. It was a fun childhood we even got my mom's old clothes from my grandma so that was interesting. Especially since some of them where older then she was. I remember some clothes that I just adored that my great great grandma made an only to find out that they where made in the native American way. My mom just said they where dancing clothes.

Would have been cool too if the dialogue faded out in favor of old timey piano and written subtitles like the old silent films :)

Vinyl does sound better when played on CD.

Happy Foil Arms and Hog Day

God I wondered what foil was about to reveal there at 1:27. Was almost relieved to see leeches...

Hilariously original. Love it. xD

I honestly want a razor like that.

When are y'all coming to the States? I need to see your comedy!

The meta on this *chef's kiss

It’s not pasteurized but it’s better for you. That was awesome.

Gosh. This really brings back memories of when I first discovered the boys… wow. So many memories 🙏💙

"I checked teletext and there's nothing on" 🤣🤣

And this Bob, he's from the year five vintage of friends...

I spit out my drink laughing at 1:34

was't it called byzantium first and was later renamed to konstantinople y emperor constantin somtime in te 4th century or so?

I shave myself with a razorblade from my grandfather who has been dead for 30 years.

I think solar powered Zeppelins are quite progressive ... ... ... seriously.

Wait, is Foil wearing an old style pair of round glasses?

ARMS IS THE CHIPS CURRY GUY

They don't make years like 2017 anymore.

Loved the leaches.

Where I live you can fly around in a Zeppelin...as a tourist event of course.

Thank god for Thursday!

"Sure it was better back in my day"

The problem with Mp3 is that it's that is compressed af, not that it's a digital source of audio. If you listen to lossless formats from good recordings there's no issue at all, but yeah: to listen to a concert live it's a complete different thing.

So funny

Is this one of their old vids?

when it started going grey i thought there was something wrong with me eyes.

1:29 were can I get those

Damn, Gutenberg really did ruin everything, didn't he :D

Looking forward to seeing you guys I. Edinburgh!

Ok I feel attacked with the vinyl and VHS 😆… yes I still listen and watch them 😏

Honestly, Constantinople sounds so much cooler than Istanbul

Message one is hilarious

Cinema Paradiso is the greatest film I have ever seen

I love Thursday's

Oh my irish knees!!!! 😂

"Teletext" Jesus 😂 don't remind me

...I feel called out XD

whoot! guess whos from youghal 😅 that mistake at the end actually made my day

Did anyone else notice Arms in the McDonalds ad

hahah you guys are the bes!

I'm usually all about Arms...but Foil is looking mighty fine @1:29 🍑⌛♡

Byzantium! well done!

This video should have been recorded on VHS.

It's strange, I didn't care for, nor particularly use Teletext for anything useful back in the day. Yet I do miss it, maybe because it was so wonderfully horrifying.

I'm not sure if the logo at the end of the video is new or made just for the video but it's really nice. I'd use it more often.

You should have had a beta disc instead of a VHS lol

the old foil arms and hog videos were far superior.

Thats my favorite Roxy Music song

Ye're gas!

Nice!

Is that the aldi record player

Model T broke down, rubbish Ford's don't brake down ha! mmmmmmmh lovely fresh Milk straight from the cow. Great work guy's
