Deliveroo eat your heart out 🤣

Great interview and great interest in the comments. So much information and confidence in the product and shop. It was fantastic. I hope more viewers see this film. They will love it.

My goodness this chip shop owner could never have foreseen that his 1/9d Fish & chips would one day cost upwards of £10.00, 50 years later. £10 would have been a weeks' wages for some people in 1963 . Great video.. I love to see how much nicer people were back when I was a child..

Hungry now 😫 Wish i had fish and chips xxx

Thrupence!

Tarry's on Manse Road....Remember it well......Chippy that became a bit of a cult

You don't wear a bleedin' suit when you work in a chippie!

10p for a fish supper.. how expensive

I used to buy chips there. But I never understood why it took 4 hours to make the chips. Slow fried, they said. Time is money, I said. I never bought a meal from them again. Lettuce and beans are my sustenance now.

I remember Tarry’s, great chippy!

Well that was a blast from the past. An excellent example of inflation, what cost fish and chips today? $7-8 here in Australia

Delivery in a shirt, tie and blazer

10p for fish and chips 😍

cash or card??

2 shillings incl delivery within 20 mins

maybe the old man drank the food money

Last time I was in Nottingham England I eat every day steak and kidney pie delicious but it cost about 3 to 4 pounds

Did you hear the price ? 1 shilling 9p in the old money.

FishnChips cooked in lard. You would smell it a mile away. Not many do it now sadly.

Well London it’s £15 for cod and chips

Fish and chips for one and nine!!! Blimey. It's over a tenner at our local chippy now ☹

Victor with his wee mini was your driver .This is an acvtor delivering .

Forgot to ask if she wanted salt or sauce ?

Imagine being able to go back in time, and saying to the Interviewer Jameson clark "61 years from now and the same fish supper will cost You £12.00

Fifteen minutes notice? Id’ve given that woman a piece of my mind!😮

Ha ha so you phone and tell them when to deliver..try that in Scotland now see what happens

Forward to 2024 Hello I ORDERED FOOD AN HR AGO. Driver is on its way 37 quid please COLD...

Jameson Clark with the mic. That takes me back to very early television news programes. Just two channels then.

In 1963, people say .... fish supper too expensive, at 2 shillings delivered to your door. That's about £1.70 today. Good luck getting a fish supper delivered for £1.70 in 2024. Just the fish supper is £10. Delivery is an extra £5.

That big Humber was taking no prisoners. Just as well the minivan had wing mirrors.

Remarkable! Not only did Tarry do home deliveries of fast food decades before anybody else, he was psychic as well! You phoned in, placed your order and he knew who you were and where you lived without even bothering to ask.... pretty good, eh?

Wow 1/9d for a cod lot! You're lucky to get change from £10 now.

We still have that cabinet, and it’s still broken.

Even back then people were saying Fish n Chips are expensive! 😂

…and where to deliver them too 🤣🤣🤣

How good is this! The godfathers of Ubereats.

should of moved them out and away from bill

Fine looking woman.

I long for the leaves being back on the trees like this, rather than on the ground and making me slip all over the place, currently.

Scottish accents in Edinburgh!?! Definitely old footage. Probably a Polish supermarket now...

This was my local chip shop as a child. It was next door to the school and near the local sweet shop which was called Rosie's if I remember correctly. It was a special treat I used to go with one of my sisters! I remember the family and went to college with one of the girls. His name wasn't Mr Tarry but I can't say what it was although I know it. I lived in Corstorphine for twenty years 1961 to 1981. Happy days

Superb, spent many a visit to Tarry's growing up in Corstorphine, from the mid 60's onwards, just cant remember when Tarry's disappeared, although I think the shop is now a Chinese.

Faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaantastic. Two bob for fish and chips -- DELIVERED!!!! He should have changed his name to McDonald -- he'd have been a squillionaire!!!!!!!

I’m known to do the occasional voiceover.

Amazing. Legendary. Thrupence for delivery...

Lived all my life in the area. Used Tarry's regularly as a young teenager. Wonderful memories

How utterly delightful. Growing up on a remote dairy farm in New Zealand in the 60s I could only dream of such a luxury. Purchasing food like takeaways was strictly forbidden. Our nearest f&c shop was 5 miles away. Dogfish was the most common fish and several shellfish were available. 😁

Blast from the past. Thanks for this.

This is a wee sequence that I shot and directed for a @BBC documentary back around 2005. The commissioner didn’t like it, and asked us to take it out of the final edit. I really liked - and still do - the way it all looked and felt.
