Briz 31 - Brisbane's Local TV - Part 1
While channel surfing late one night in Brisbane, you probably stumbled across a TV station that seemed a bit "different"... and that's if you got a clear signal.
This TV station was Briz 31. Existing in various different forms from 1992 until 2019, Briz 31 was Brisbane's public-access television station, providing a platform for Brisbane's local community and independent producers.
Released for the 30th anniversary of when Briz 31 began full-time broadcasts in 1994, this video is the first of a two-part series outlining Brisbane's community television station (and the obvious inspiration behind this TH-cam channel's name).
Special thanks to Mark Ciobo for his help with this video.

Cribb Island - Brisbane's Lost Suburb
มุมมอง 7K2 หลายเดือนก่อน
Cribb Island, or "Cribbie" as it was affectionately known, was a coastal suburb north of Brisbane that overlooked Moreton Bay. During the roaring 1920s, Cribb Island was a thriving beach destination for Brisbane locals. In the 1960s, the suburb was an early stomping ground for one of the world's most successful musical artists. On 5th June 1980, it was closed down, controversially cleared out a...
The Twin Pine - Gympie's Big Pineapple
มุมมอง 3.7K4 หลายเดือนก่อน
There was once a time when Queensland had TWO Big Pineapples - both were built at the same time (depending on who you talk to), and both stood at about the same height (also depending on who you talk to). One in the Sunshine Coast, and one in the town of Gympie. Often overshadowed by its Sunshine Coast counterpart and meeting a sad demise in the 2000s, we felt it was finally time that the story...
The Dragon of Brisbane - Tops Myer Centre
มุมมอง 11K6 หลายเดือนก่อน
It sounds like something from out of a fever dream, but Brisbane's Myer Centre once had a roller-coaster and an indoor amusement park within its top two floors! The 'Dragon Coaster' was a popular attraction at the Myer Centre, and is still fondly remembered in Brisbane today. In this video we take a look back at Top's Amusement Centre, and whatever happened to its iconic dragon. 0:00 - Introduc...

World Expo 88 - Then & Now
มุมมอง 40Kปีที่แล้ว
World Expo 88 was a World's Fair held in Brisbane, Australia that ran from April to October 1988. The fair's success was instrumental in helping transform Brisbane and Queensland into an international tourism destination. As soon as Expo was done, just about all of the sites were demolished and the Southbank Parklands were built in its place. This mini-documentary presents a "then and now" of t...
I miss this place.
Wow good video, covered it. I still find it funny that we had better public transport with the trams 50 years ago, I was told growing up it's because we don't have enough people, then I visited switzerland. Amazing public transport in tiny towns and their roads are perfect for driving. I suspect their roads are in such good condition because they don't have to cope with the volume of car traffic, because not every trip is made by car. So, less money needs to be invested in maintaining them. Pity you didn't do the cycle lanes. I finished a uni degree before the 20 metres to connect the centenary one to Jindalee was finished - council told me they had their 2 best people working on it at the time. Find riding once that was finished, way quicker and more reliable than the bus to the city & don't have to wait around for hours at night. E bikes are game changing - Brisbane is now flat.
Everyone that’s living in The Gap should be seeing this video, Richard a lovely man he was a wonderful manager of The Taylor Range club when I was a member in the 90’s so delighted to have watched it
And the Queensland Pavilion is now Gateway Baptist Church in Mackenzie.
Correct.
Tamara was great.
Rubbish
Renovations 4 Beginners, the most factual building Reno show ever
As a retired person i think we have a great transport system I go all over Brisbane , Gold Coast North Coast , Redcliffe , learn to us the translink app and stop asking the bus Driver where does this bus go, when i was in grade one i had a slate and slate pencil,now if i have the ability to learn so do others.
Man I used to love that thing and the pirate ship used to scare the shit out off me at 25 years of age but still had to keep going on it quite a shock when a country kid from Central west nsw sees this stuff inside a shop
It was Great.
I rode both the dragon coaster and the ship at tops. It truly was like stepping into another world as a kid.
I think it became a BP later on (yes, across the road from the current BP).
Crazy crosswords was the funniest show ever. RIP Jonathan Atherton, what a legend he was. Thanks so much for putting this together. Really enjoyed it.
I played on the opening night, with the Wayfarers.
I still occasionally quote Tamara at work by saying “We must smack that naughty clock that says it’s time to go!”. I’m pretty sure she stole that one off John Michael-Howson.
Bring it back!!
5:24 I've never seen a moose knuckle that big lol. Wow, go Briz 31!
wait it went through till 2017?
Trams are horrible. Better to invest in a proper underground subway system. Which they are actually doing.
I’m hoping episode 2 has tommos caravanning adventures.
Cheers for the memories dude from the guy with the beard from BriZ31, I was there for 16 years and loved every minute of it.
My pleasure!
I worked there from 1997 to 2004, I’m responsible for that horrible logo redo. Sorry about that. I was there through the licensing process and even remember the day Derick had his picture taken in the studio. I enjoyed my late night chats in presentation with Tamara when she dropped the Tamara Tonight Show off. Had a lot of good times. I left and worked for Southern Cross Ten for 16 years and now I do archival work for a private company. All because of Briz 31.
You ran the broadcast like a pro and were a champion, good times man.
I worked at Briz for around 10 years, starting as a volunteer in 1996, I also co-hosted the movie review show.
Broadcast Ivan?
Used to love Bris 31
Ah, fond memories of jiggling the rabbit ears around to try and get better reception, and it just never getting any better!😂
Yes 😂 that's how I remember it!
I’ll have to watch this later. I get so upset when I think about how Brisbane could have been one of the greatest public transport cities in the world. If only we hadn’t foolishly scrapped the second largest light rail network in the southern hemisphere which today would still rank No. 3 in the world after St Petersburg and still No 1 Melbourne.
Alternate title: When Brisbane TH-cam was spelt and pronounced differently
This is what TH-cam was built for! Thank you
The lowest point of the station would have to have been in the mid-2000s when all they ran for what seemed like 24/7 was that still ad for Naughty But Nice.
Hah! I don't remember this!
Every time I turned it on it was harness racing. As the child of a harness racer, no thanksssss boriiiiiiinnngggguuuuuhhhhhhh
@@aussiejubes LOL well that reminds me that they did used to run an antiquated promo jingle for Albion Park raceway. "We're going out to Albion Park!" They would run a lot of old ads that hadn't run on the major networks for years.
@@Millennialtomb oooh yes! 😂😂 the memories 😂
@@Millennialtomb I tried to hunt down the harness racing promo jingle, but no luck. "Come to the Paceway!" I think it was.
Awesome mate, i watched bris31 all the time, loved the home butchery show and the drag queen show, geat vid, look forward to part 2.
I liked the music show they ran on Saturday nights circa 2002. It was sort of like Pop Up Video, where they would run slightly older music videos and have a bit of trivia about the artist. This was good if you were into older music, because this was well pre-youtube, and your only other options were top 40 slop like Video Hits and Rage - I know Rage makes time to play oldies these days, but at that time they didn't.
I had no idea. That was an education for me! Now I understand your channel name.
@@BrisbaneChannel Thanks mate!
COOL mate! - Awesome memories of the station, and shows. It always reminded me (A LOT) of my Qld College of Art days, and some of the whacky productions we made! I remember seeing the first amateur radio guys playing with the frequency, before it eventually evolved into Briz 31. I actually have some tapes within arms reach of my office desk here, with some of the shows I was in ('Car Seen' was one of them), and I remember how nice it was of the producers of that, bringing a copy over to my place. I also sat in the audience at west end for the taping of, what I'm glad you mentioned 'Tamara tonight'; one of my ex girlfriends and I were big fans - 'Tamaras' 'alter-ego' (Rod) and I, had many phone conversations back in the day...Although I'm straight; it was very interesting to hear all of the things he told me about - I actually ended up doing his website for some time: I still laugh at getting a cheque in the mail from his business 'Dial a drag queen productions', then the embarrassment of having to BANK it! LOL
Great memories back when it was in the massive Montague Road building. Will never forget working with Garry in the Advertising and Sponsorship Office raising plenty of dollars for the station and getting congratulated by a great mentor in Ric Adams for doing such a great job in raising plenty of sponsorship dollars. Really miss those days...
Did Garry try and sell you beer?
@@krisranderson3075 if memory serves me right, I think he was really into home brew, but no he never tried to sell me any. I just remember the comb over slicked back and enjoying his smokes. The memory is a bit fuzzy but a lot of us remember a girl named Trish that liked to make out with all the boys hahaha
How could you leave out one of the most popular attractions for people both young and old? People would line up for miles to sit in the TV-Screen Used talking car known as K.I.T.T. from the show Knight Rider, which was located right near the Suncorp SENSUS Display and the Canada Pavilion at the Melbourne Street end of the park... for most teenage boys, it was the only thing we wanted to see!
Great video! But what about the lady with pink hair who did the music show?! Had a chat with her at Festival Hall after the legendary Regurgitator/TISM/Fauves gig in '95.
What was the show called?
@@IBISChannel32 oof, hard to remember... She also interviewed local business people, including two young ladies who had opened a chic second hand store somewhere near the city ...it was so cringe because pink hair lady (who also usually wore a big black jacket, and was trying to be professional) was asking questions about their business and they were just saying "yeah", "That's right" and "uh-huh". That's what they call DEAD AIR, people!
@@IBISChannel32 AandV. Marie was the main host.
Those were the days
Yep; fun times.
Frank Canan helped me put together a one off show called the Classic Car show which aired on Bris31. Also of note was Frank Canan's offsider, John Rooth, who went on to mainstream TV with his old FJ45 Landcruiser, which Annaconda has replicas of in their store.
Ah yes. Bris31 some weird funky shows as a kid lol.
😔👉 9:40 🙏❤️☝️ RIP Jonathan Atherton
I agree : I didn't know he'd passed on.
how cool ?🚬🤠 2:22 i didn’t know that ☝️ great research 🙏
🤠 huge fan . i wish i could have got involved
Fantastic video mate, well done.
Going into the city regardless is exhausting to shop or anything, traffic is insane, parking is expensive. Better to go to local suburb shopping centres lol just my Brisbane living opinion, only time you’d see me in there is for job interviews or wagging back in highschool 😂
I don’t believe we will get a new tram line for at least another decade, but imagine having a light rail tram line from Hamilton to West End, through the city. would be so cool.
I dis agree with the Arana Hills comment it is a 5min walk to the main hub no need for bus or uber. The average person would just walk up Dawson Pde
Thanks for another great vid! Very informative and well put together. 😊
Part of the problem is the train frequencies are just trash outside Peak hours, trains should be running every 15min like they do in Sydney. Another Problem is Brissy doesnt have enough express tracks for faster trains like Sydney & Melbourne do, and the tracks that are there are slow and winding where Perth & Adelaide have straight and direct alignments allowing faster speeds, so there needs to be an effort to build more fast express tracks once Cross River Rail is done. And lastly the Bus Network needs to be reworked so that bus routes feed trains rather than everything try and run into the City. The Trouts Road NWTC Reservation should be a quad track railway with 160kmh all the way fron Petrie to Alderley then directly into the Cross River Rail Tunnel.
We need to sort out out road/rail crossings as this holds traffic up. Another thing to take into consideration is out freight uses our suburb lines in some branches and our markets used to be at Roma street.
