- "New Family in Town" is a Civil Defense film from 1956 that tells the story of the Trombleys, an English family who move into an American town. In addition to bringing with them a host of foreign customs, the Trombleys also possess a keen interest in civil defense due to their living through the "Blitz" on London. Their construction of a bomb shelter gets the attention of the town. Robert Preston of "Music Man" fame narrates.
In this era the Federal Government hoped to persuade civilians to consider building a bomb shelter as part of their civic duty.

I convinced my parents to put in a small space and double the thickness of the concrete slab they poured to park the truck and boat on. Its been a family project for about a decade, I looked up the old civil defense guides on construction and found them extremely helpfull, even though some parts were dated
These days its best to source your bunker parts from Switzerland, which still builds shelters for all their citizens; most American companies sell junk or resell swiss stuff at a large mark up, we got our hatches and main air tight door for 2/3rds less than a major bunker company quoted us, fitting for a company with a greek name tried to screw us up the you know
You NEVER want to tell a neighbor you have a pool, or a shelter...
Wise words from a wise man.
Google maps easily lets you see who has pools...
What if you built you shelter near you pool , lots of water supply , just filter and drink !
Money, food, a wife, a job, a car, morals, scruples….
@@unassistedsuicide2243 Just live rural and don't have neighbors in the first place. Bonus points, if the bombs fall, you won't need a shelter either.
Vault-Tec sent me here.
YOU LEAVE THE CATS OUT OF THIS!!
Say Mr Trombley ,whatcha doin ?
Trombley : Digging a mass grave
"Tea? TEA? This is AMERICA! We drink COFFEE here!"
Jim never ask for a second cup at home.
I can hear this quote in the narrator's voice 😂
I think you would find that more tea would be consumed in a shelter survival situation, tea is easier to store, is easier to make in large batches or small, can be reused if treated properly and the leaves could be used to help in sanitation, and tastes much better.
@@juicyfruit6311 And don't call me Shirley!
Not I....Said the average tea drinking american..
well I would stock the shelter with extra can openers, tools as you know when it happens that one can opener will be in the house or broken
Robert Preston narrator; "We've got fallout, right here in River City. That starts with a "C", that rhymes with "P" and that stands for Polonium."
Splendid idea old chap just brilliant..
(while entertaining): "where are your kids?" "in the back yard, underground..."
"honey, the kids are getting on my nerves. Lock them down in the bomb shelter, k?"
the most underrated comment I've seen... well played.
Yaknow there aught to be modern versions of this advice that factors in how modern nukes work, and what we've been able to learn in the over 50 years since, hell alot has changed even just from the 90s to today! We no longer have just 2 nations with nukes, its more like well over 20, last i checked, could be even more!
This was brilliant, absolutely brilliant 👏 Thank you so very much for the video. Throughly enjoyed it.
If she were English, Mrs. Cromley would have said "tin opener" instead. Her accent was pretty ropey.
She sounded like an American who was trying too hard to speak in one of the many British dialects - in this case, Received Pronunciation.
"Mr. Trombley and I can always use the shelter as a sex dungeon."
I say, well done chap. jolly good show. you have taught us all well. God shave the Queen. 😎
Pip pip!
You find great stuff and of good visual quality😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
The first two rules of fallout shelters are the same as for fight club... you do not talk about it.
Dogs have owners. Cats have staff. lol
😂 True that Jack!
LMAOOOOO !!!
The survivors will envy the dead eventually...
10:27 Watercloset? I didn't think people used such things back then. Ozzie and Harriet didn't. Lucy didn't.
They did use them. They just didn't talk about them :-)
Everyone smokes in the shelters in these films, lol!
Jolly nice
Watching this video and hearing the accents the "English" people were speaking with, it made me wonder if their accents were even real English accents because they don't sound like any English accents I've ever heard. Judging by the comments on the video, it further reinforces my theory that these accents were fake. I doubt the general public at the time this video was made that they didn't know any better.
11:37 "Oh tosh...what twoddle!"
Nosey neighbors.
There's Trouble, in River City!!!
I wondered when I saw the narrator was "Robert Preston".
What a bizarre film even compared to others of the era.
his wife’s accent is even worse 🤣🤣
A darkly comical Cold War-era propaganda film about bomb shelters narrated by Robert Preston.
the english man has an american accent 🤣
He was an actual Brit. He was a character actor.
sarah louise, you fell into the 21st century trap of making fun of people and videos of the past without doing your homework first…
We used to call those make out shelters.
THESE are the foreigners? I would welcome them with open arms. Most of the neighbors probably had last names like Smith, Jones,white,... Seriously,
people have to work together. Dont be naive, keep an eye on them and be ready....but also be cosiderate....something I myself have to do more often.

I think the British Lady is related to the Queen.😂
God shave the Queen.
Actually, old chap, her accent is terrible. Obviously American.
@@matthaxx7137 Old Chap?
@@bunnyfoofoo9695 Very British phrase of a certain class and a certain era.
@@matthaxx7137I'm not sure where they pick these supposed accents up from, nowhere in the UK obviously. We don't all sound like the royal family (thank god) or Dick Van Dyke in Mary Poppins
How much radiation can you expect from fallout at 12 miles from the blast ?
Depends on a LOT of factors... depends on the size or yield of the weapon, whether it's a groundburst or airburst (detonation on the surface or thousands of feet in the air for maximum blast/heat radius), type of weapon (atomic, thermonuclear, multistage thermonuclear (fission/fusion or fission/fusion/fission), whether it's a "salted bomb" (designed to create more radioactive fallout through jacketing the bomb with a neutron-activated material that becomes highly radioactive). The weather is the number one determinant of fallout pattern. The first fallout within the first few hours is the most intense and the most deadly, but it's usually within the diameter of the mushroom cloud around ground zero, and extending slightly downwind, further downwind the higher the windspeed is after detonation. If it's almost still with no wind for 12-24 hours after the detonation, most of the fallout will rain down in the immediate area, and be very intense due to all of it falling on such a small area. A slight wind will carry the fallout into a classic "teardrop" shaped pattern downwind, again with most of it falling closer to the detonation point and being the most intense there, less intense with distance and further at an angle to the prevailing wind after the blast. High winds will create a long, cigar-shaped fallout pattern, with the greatest intensity near the center and less along the periphery, because the strong winds will carry the fallout further from the detonation point before it hits the ground. Fallout is mostly like sand, so it falls relatively quickly (though usually you have about an hour after the detonation to get to shelter before the fallout actually arrives, depending on location and conditions). Some areas will get no or little fallout, others will get heavily contaminated to the point even being outside for 10-15 minutes during the height of it would be deadly. Variable winds are the worst, as the winds shift in direction they will spread the fallout first one way then another, which spreads it over a wider area so it's less intense in a given area, BUT it's spread over a MUCH wider area and therefore affects many more people and a much larger area, making moving to a fallout-free area more difficult after the bombing. Rainfall or snow/precipitation can "wash" fallout out of the air shortly after the blast, leading to extremely high concentrations in some areas that receive this "radioactive rain". Knowing the wind direction and speed relative to your location in the hours and couple days after the blast are very important to figuring out where the fallout is likely to be.
Later! OL J R :)
I'll admit when I saw "until new people moved in. Foreigners obviously..." I thought this was going to be a very differerent video on racial tensions. Even seeing everyone was white you still felt the "But what if they were..." in their eyes.
The 'Good Life' at least until 1994 NAFTA...BTW - that bomb shelter won't matter, once the ICBM's and megaton warheads come sailing overhead...😢
Radiation sounds preferable than hearing those "English" accents again.
Buzz off.
Oh goodness gracious the hotplate, One does tend to help in the process of cooking up meth, it’s jolly good fun you know. And tally-ho on guessing which part of mother England we are from cause we don’t know.
"motor car" 🤭😂
I don't know which England they were from, but it certainly wasn't the one in the UK! His fake accent was cringeworthy enough, but hers was downright diabolical! Absolutely nowhere in the UK does anyone speak like that....... Reminds somewhat of Roger Miller's "Engerland Swings" from the 1960s ...... "Tryna mauk the way they tauk, fun bud'all in vain, gaping at those dapper men with Derby hats and canes".... Oh, Engerland swings like a pendulum do, bobbies aun bicycles, two by two. Westminster Abbey, the tow'r o' Big Ben, the Rosie red cheeks of the little children!!!!!
America had some funny ideas about England and the English! 🤦🎆🙋🤷😇
Meow meow meow meow meow meow meow!
Meow meow meow!
Charlie says...
I love how when all the women were on the phone with each other they played the cats in the background. but that one guy on the phone with them... he is the one you got to watch out for. he is banging everyone's wife.
Three weeks later they were all brutally murdered by the father.
Please use noise filtering in the future before uploading. Thanks!
Wow, was that Englishman a stereotype! 😂
Here’s an idea for that street. Everybody should work together to build a single communal shelter. People could contribute what they could afford. Rather than some having a great shelter and others having a basic one. Not American perhaps? 😀
