Not sure it was a better place. There were still many problems and wars going on. Looking at things with Rose tinted glasses can play tricks on the memory. For many of us we were kids or young people at this time so didn't have many problems but for the older generations, they still did.
Yes, it was a better place despite all the problems. How can anyone say it is better now? Even yopung people hate the world today of wokeness greed and incompetence@@pigsymagic4741
Watching this after a few cheap movies on Netflix is like coming home. The acting is superb, the sets, the costumes, the direction and above all take note: The entire film describes one day, from morn till night in the lives of us common folk. Utterly believable.
These old films may not exactly be Oscar winning Hollywood classics but they bring back wonderful memories of better times when life was simple and a lot less stressful, No mobile phones or social media just people talking to each other in the street,
Life would be simpler now if there wasn't all the computer technology. It's as if you sell your soul for less back pain. Yes, life was, to a certain degree, simpler. But the oncoming generations won't know the difference, just as we didn't know the difference between our "now" and the "then" of our predecessors.
There always seemed to be some party or get together going on just like this when I was a kid in the 70s and 80s, great sense of community and family. Lovely film and lots of memories. Thanks for posting.
What a lovely inoffensive film from a simpler time No violence,death and distruction. If I had a time machine, I would love to go back to the early 70's.
@@markbennett2170 Why on earth would @Michael Walton have said such a thing?! What a troll. ON behalf of the human race I apologise to you. I thought it a very sweer kind and thoughtful comment.
@@taras6806 It has me scratching my head too. It is so good to have your kind comments. It's troubling that we have people in society with this weird and angry view on life. I'm not religious but I will pray for him. x
I miss the old-time films yes times were hard but people knew how to communicate and live a simple life . I was born the early 60s and remember the gatherings everyone pulled together ...not like now
Love the simplicity of these old comedies from the past,....there seemed a more simpler wholesome down to earth feel to the humour in those times,...wonderful characters and great writing, gave the film a charm and a feel good vibe , that made them such a delight to watch....
I can state that this film was exactly how things were in England, in the early 1970s. I'm still not decided whether I liked this film or not but if anyone wants to know how the working class looked, spoke and lived at that time, this film is closer to the mark than anything else you'll see. Note that in the film, Irene Handl had a very pronounced London accent but in reality, she had an educated "posh" accent. I've seen her on the stage a few times and she never failed to impress.
Loved the 70’s because it was my era and there was a wealth of great programs, music and talented people without the aid of technology. I like a builders brew but with loose tea leaves in the teapot in a mug☕️👍
I feel like I've stumbled across a real gem of a film from yester-year, and I couldn't be happier. I enjoyed all the 'For The Love of Ada' TV programmes when they were shown in 70-71and the whole family would sit down to watch every time it was on. It was sweet, completely harmless and very popular. Take me back to a simpler, kinder time any day, and compared to some of the rubbish that purports to be entertainment on telly today, I'll happily watch these classic programmes all day, every day thanks. Made my day watching this, stepping back in time and taking a stroll down memory lane for a little while. You have a new subscriber! Thanks for uploading this 📺🎬📺
A lovely film, one of the best adaptations of a sitcom ever, with two of my favourite stars of TV and silver screen, Irene Handl and Wilfred Pickles. What a poignant line, when Irene talks about hoping they would both live to get a telegram from the Queen. Sadly, neither of them did, but at least Wilfred got an OBE. A great supporting cast too, including Arthur English, Jack Smethurst and the lovely Hilda Braid. Comedy at its best. Thanks again Flick Vault!
Yes my dad loved Irene handl in things on t.v, shame she passed away in 1987 but I remember her been on t.v a lot as a kid in metal mickey and other stuff..R.I.P to her and these beautiful times, I miss the old England so much..
Just started watching the TV series on DVD. What a great choice. Too young to have seen any of this on TV the first time or re-runs. Excellent acting, the warmth of the characters exude. Fabulous to find the film.
Delightful film, used to love the series on TV from the early '70s - gentle comedy and great memories of happier days in the community. Thank you so much Flick Vault...
That was lovely! I wish that there were still lovely do's like this happening today, wherein folks still sang ballads with decent heartfelt words and genuine sentiment. The world has changed into something cold and unrecognizable with complete lack of morals and benevolence.
Wish todays movies were more like this one with a good story and great acting. Lovely picture. Enjoyed this FLICK. Thank you so very much FLICK VAULT. Lovin it from across the pond here in Gatlinburg, TN U.S.A.
Irene Handl is one of my totally favourite comedy actresses; and it upset me when she died. I first noticed this superb actress during the 1950's when I was a kid. She was a classic and a brilliant and a multi-talented woman. I wish I had met her very much.
Most of the people of the world are now under some form of lockdown/ house arrest. This is cheering me up and taking me back to a happier, more uplifting world, when the government we're accountable to the people and put the British people first.
Takes you back to days when life was much more simple and straight forward - and no people getting outraged at everything - that hairdresser reminds me of when they opened a toppless male hairdressers in Paisley that would be about that period - wouldnt get away with that now a days
Thank you so much for posting this lovely movie and series. It cheers this lonely old romantic and gives me hope. So nice to see a real woman being positive and loved.
You are an absolute STAR for posting this - thank you, SO much :0) Irene Handl is one of my all-time favourite actresses of yesteryear. I've not seen a single thing with her in, that I didn't thoroughly enjoy. When you consider that her early years of fame were in the black & white era, having started out in later adulthood, that she, as what they'd called a character actor, became an older lady still & had feared that parts would dry up for her, to have something as wonderful as For The Love of Ada come along, it must have felt like winning the lottery. Then, she gave us a great turn in Metal Mickey! Joy! Becoming a household name across the generations is no mean feat. I will always love & miss her. So maternal, she'd had me wishing she was my mum, yet she, as I too, never married or had children. R.I.P. darling lady.
a sweet film charming funny and sad at times but love all these comedy movies better than all the channels of rubbish today .... thanks flick vault what a superb channel too
Omg, thankyou so much for putting this film on TH-cam, I love this film, I bought the box set just a few months ago, good times from when I was little, xxx
i love these old actor,s from the greatest generation that ever lived, they remind me of many past family member.s & also family friends that are sadly no longer with us, but if they could come back & see what the uk is like these days they would be shocked, they would prob say, what have yas done, we left ya everything perfect, fighting world war,s to keep ya,s safe & putting rail links to just about every town & village & filling every town & villages all up & down the uk with lovely buildings & all yas had to do was look after the place & improve everything more cos all the hard work is done, but instead the whole place has gone from wreak to ruin,
True British comedy at it's best Irene & wilfred are priceless I missed the film and series first time round Bu t I am making up for it know Beautiful inoffensive comedy They don't make them like this any more !! Nn
Well we had a life were people had nothing like we have today but got on with life without interfering or talking about crap that is meaningless..we have everything at the touch of a button but people making people incapable of living a life .. anyway film is a belter and watch these to give a nice feeling of happier times .. cheers

I love these films, they take you back to when the world was a better place ❤
Not sure it was a better place. There were still many problems and wars going on. Looking at things with Rose tinted glasses can play tricks on the memory. For many of us we were kids or young people at this time so didn't have many problems but for the older generations, they still did.
when women couldn’t have credit cards, own property, when abuse was written off as “ our fault. ...i think not.
To when OUR country was a better place 😢
Yes, it was a better place despite all the problems. How can anyone say it is better now? Even yopung people hate the world today of wokeness greed and incompetence@@pigsymagic4741
It was never perfect but infinitely better than today in so many ways.stil at 62 year's old not to worry.
Watching this after a few cheap movies on Netflix is like coming home. The acting is superb, the sets, the costumes, the direction and above all take note: The entire film describes one day, from morn till night in the lives of us common folk. Utterly believable.
its so good to watch a " normal " film with no bad language no smut and entertaining because a lot of us can relate to thanks for down loading xx
These old films may not exactly be Oscar winning Hollywood classics but they bring back wonderful memories of better times when life was simple and a lot less stressful, No mobile phones or social media just people talking to each other in the street,
I love this film. A time without mobile phones. Beautiful! 💕
Born in 1963. Wanted something lovely to watch and this beautiful film has lifted me from the dispair of 2021.x❤️
The flowers on the table.... I cried 🥰🌹💐❤️
I know what' you mean .very moving.
What a beautiful face and smile Irene Handl had
A very kind face. I thought the same of Hylda Baker.
Bring's back so many memories and how simple life was back then.
Life would be simpler now if there wasn't all the computer technology. It's as if you sell your soul for less back pain. Yes, life was, to a certain degree, simpler. But the oncoming generations won't know the difference, just as we didn't know the difference between our "now" and the "then" of our predecessors.
Great movie. I’m from India, 33yr single bloke. I like such sweet, less dramatic movies. I seem to be traditional and old-school in my thoughts haha 😆
Absolutely marvellous. Wonderful cast , beautifully acted without over acting.
I love the music. Gilbert OSullivan was one of my favourites ♥
I love Ada, she reminds me so much of my much missed nan

Now it's just rectangles and abuse on anti social media.
Some houses still have the old home bar, though.
Brilliant
Some people now would rather go out their way to hurt rather than help. Vile world now.

English first!
Or self imposed house arrest after covid due to the violence and unrecognisable Britain we once knew.
Love the 70's music in this takes me right back love.
What a nice surprise this movie was, a delightful movie with real heart from New Zealand
Gilbert O’ Sullivan singing over the titles. He’d be really popular at this point. Loved Irene Handl. She was the grandma you always wanted.
he's still singing today
Takes you back to days when life was much more simple and straight forward - and no people getting outraged at everything - that hairdresser reminds me of when they opened a toppless male hairdressers in Paisley that would be about that period - wouldnt get away with that now a days
Good Times.
Everything was nice then
Even people was nicer then
I love these English movies from this era! This one is just right to watch during the day, light hearted and bubbly ! 😁 📺
I love these too and Eddie booth is great especially in love thy neighbour

When England was English before Tony Blair ruined our shores

Fab. Brought back a lot of memories!!
Jack Smedhurst always played randy characters for some reason - a rather strange type of typecasting but at least it kept him in a job
This is a heartfelt story! But also a lovely comedy.
Ive seen it many times on English TV👍😉

The 'wig' moment is great!!

Old times seem better with blinkers well fastened on, and when you are included in the option to be acceptable instead of just tolerable.
That was good! It made teary. A wonderful story
Lovely film thanks x
Irene Handl was the best
