I worked in a bakery from 1990 until 2020.. and that bakery has existed since 1899.. I can tell you most of the ways they do it and the machines still look like this 😊
Ah, yes, a simpler cleaner time full of segregation, the Vietnam war, the Indonesian mass killings, assassinations, asbestos, pregnant women smoking, fried bread, homophobia, racism, CFCs, you name it. What a simpler and cleaner time to be alive.
Watching old videos used to be like, look how primitive they were. Now watching old videos is like, look how much better they were... We are not getting better with time anymore.
What do we really know about the game, end game, good, bad? On one hand it is easy to fall into a nostalgic trance, but I imagine there was a lot of longing for an older past when this was new.
My dad used to work for Sunblest in the 60s , what came back in the vans on a Saturday was classed as waste and employees were allowed to take what they needed, we used to get a variety of bread and cakes, even sometimes large pork pie and fresh cream cakes. We never went short of fod, but I always looked forward to Saturday & Sunday tea time
If it was the Sunblest bakery in West Bromwich, I remember they had a rat problem in the 60's , some of which were caught up in the dough.😂😂😂😂. Still, this factory looks sanitary for its time.
20 years from now you are wish to wish you can return to today.....so try to live a happy current life. You might need to make some changes and trade offs
My great grandfather used to fix bakery ovens like this for a living. They would send him all over the country during the great depression to fix those ovens. My family was lucky and actually had money because he was paid to be by the phone and ready to go to any part of the country on a moment's notice. He helped feed this country.

In 1962 I was a senior in high school. Somehow this film seems to be from a much older time. The labor that went into making these bread products is impressive and is a great reminder of how many people behind the scenes serve us.
This is largely unrelated to the video, but as someone born in the early 2000s, I’m curious about these times! A year later President Kennedy was assassinated in dallas, do you recall how you felt or where you were when you heard the news? Thanks
I grew up in my dad’s bakery. Ate all the lovely goodies. Became a very good baker myself. The saddest day of My life was getting diagnosed at age 45 with gluten intolerance. I refused to believe it. But after giving up wheat and other gluten grains all the symptoms vanished. Once in a while I will try some again to see if it has gone away and regret it every time.
I hope you get to enjoy bread again. If I may recommend you try back to eating ancient wheat varieties as the had naturally lower gluten (Varieties like Einkorn, Kamut, Khorasan, Emmer) as you likely will be pleasantly surprised that the symptoms would be far less, if any. I had the exact same experience. Couldn’t believe it Modern wheat have been bred to have high amounts of gluten. Secondly, very ancient bread was fermented (similar to sourdough) for 24 hours or longer. It took days to make bread. Modern bread is much quicker using modern methods such as fast yeast. Try sourdough or other long fermentation breads that don’t have fast yeast and you may likewise come to find you’re able to tolerate that much better. I had personal experience with this as I had severe allergies to wheat. I have now tried to use this as a principle with my other food allergies. I also recommend the book “Nourishing Traditions” that teaches how to eat like ancient times. I managed to get rid of food allergies and intolerances eating as ‘anciently’ as possible. Truly wonderful.
I've been going through that for the past year. Lovely pastries, and a gorgeous 6 strand butter and egg braided bread I used to make. I've taken a seemingly endless amount of Mastica and various other desperate remedies but don't think I will ever be the same. I can't even have corn any more :(
Absolutely lovely to see this old footage life and world was a different place then it all seemed so simple. Anyway i could smell that lovely bread 🍞 😉
As a kid I used to go to our local bakery and watch this for hours. From the initial mixing to watch it be made into loaves and put in the large ovens. The smell was mouthwatering. Same sort of machines as in the video.😊
Look how clean the Bakery was and the pride that the white coated and hatted Bakers took in their work! Those little Cottage Loaves were what my future Husband and I used to snack on, together with cheese and pickled onions, toward the end of our date. Lovely, sitting in his little green Mini car talking and eating with me drinking bitter lemon and he, a pint of Ansells Mild.
I'm not British but what's it called when you cut the crust off of white bread and put little cucumber salad, or whatever you ppl put in the little sandwiches
@@shable1436 A waste of the crust. No seriously: they're just cucumber sandwiches. Three ingredients: sliced white bread thinly spread with butter, and very thinly sliced cucumber. Hard to go wrong if you use good ingredients.
@@tomsdottir ok just sandwiches, not something like chips, and we call fries? 😂. I thought finger sandwiches are called something else at tea parties there. Like it's a long tradition of calling them finger or tea sandwiches, when I was a kid and heard finger sandwiches, I thought of disgusting things, only because in America we used to eat everything, from bulls balls, to liver pudding, to chicken feet, necks, to fish eyeballs. So my child mind ran wild with fingers sticking out of bread, 😂 IDK
I don't know about then but industrial bakeries these days smell so bad that if I had to make a choice between spending an hour in an industrial bakery or an hour in a sewer, I'd pick the sewer.
@@slygg It must be the way they process things now, I remember the old Southern Biscuit Co. (FFV) in Richmond VA before it closed, people loved to roll their car windows down when driving past, it smelled like Vanilla cake baking, I guess those days are past, I don't eat out and cook, prepare all of what I eat, try to buy organic whenever possible, the 60's is when industry/big corporations started changing things, using preservatives, GMO's, adding chemicals to change taste so they could get people addicted to what they sell, adding corn syrup and creating obesity in this country, we really need to go back to basics when it comes to food production.
The man said '' you can not speed up the process of proving the loaves'', today, they use rapid yeast with very little proving; flour mixed with some chemicals and then we ask ourselves "why on earth so many people have gut or immune issues". The bread is only one example of today's food industry.
I agree as it is odd that so many people have problems with eating bread in recent times. There are certain breads I have to avoid or else I suffer stomach ache hours after.
I don't know why, but this made me feel like crying. I guess because the world seemed so much simpler then. This was just a few years before I was born, and this is the England that I grew up in America dreaming about and still dream about, even though I fear this England no longer exists. I wish I grew up with small bakeries and greengroces instead of impersonal supermarkets. Everything just looked so lovely.
You're right; by the end of the 1970s we had gone the same way as America...almost. Master baker's shops did survive in a few places, and in recent years there's been some new artisan bakery business start-ups. Fortunately, there's also been a backlash against the sliced, tasteless, fake-yeast, chewy rubbish from the mega-factories and all the main British supermarket chains have fresh bakery counters. At least we Brits can be thankful that even our rubbish bread doesn't contain certain additives allowed in America!
The excitement in his voice when they bring out the baps is admirable, I wish presenters had this level of natural excitement and passion in narration, its like he's actually just talking to a room of people, and its a nice change.
I recognised the voice - then eventually the face - of the actor Howard Marion-Crawford, although I didn´t see a credit. Besides film and TV, he was wonderful in radio plays as was his one-time wife, the much loved Mary Wimbush.
He was a good voice artist. But don’t forget 5he writer, who researched and then wrote every word of the script, everybpause, every casual “aside” so the narration flowed and sounded natural. Writers create so much of your world and get very little notice or reward. Think about it.
What a life those women had! Stayed home all day, had time to dress and primp in the morning. Fresh bread butter and milk right to the door. Some life!

There is truly something special about watching the times women baked and cooked and the Bread or Milkman came and delivered to your door!

Now we are lucky if we even know the neighbors in our area and who lives there!?

@George Dave love the comments section for this video. i recall my grandmother back in the 60 and 70s would make Sunday roast dinner for all the family and would always much up an extra plate for the elderly neighbour next door. regular as clockwork she would shout over the garden fence and hand pass her a cooked dinner, simpler times. Milkman would deliver every day, we would take a bowl out to get ice cream from the ice cream van in the afternoon - raspberry ripple if you were lucky :)
Good morning ! Peoples doing their Works ! Children playing in the streets and yards ! A beautiful sunny day ! What a beautiful missing time ! Congratulations for this video ! ⭐⭐⭐
As a white US woman (from immigrant parents, Mom from Scotland) I also see not only white bread, but only white people. At 75 years old, I only see a complete unawareness of the rest of the world when one refers to this as the "good old days", but for whom?
Just blest to have such wonderful people who can operate all those huge machines. God has Graciouly given so much to mankind. Thank you all God first for our Daily Bread. Julie Kilburn
When I was at Uni, I worked part time at the McVitie's factory in Harlesden. I remember one night a worker leaned over the mixing machine too far and his mobile phone and a bag or marijuana fell into the mixer from his top pocket. The mobile was smashed into bits and the whole batch was thrown. His marijuana was taken into the office so he could be dealt with in the morning by managers. He somehow managed to get into the office and got the marijuana back so they had no evidence other than the smashed up mobile phone.
A beautiful film... it's amazing how the factory was equipped for the production of bread in those years... machines in these bright colors, people's respect for work and consumption of these products, paper packaging... wonderful 🥰 it smelled so good me in the cottage. Thank you for this movie 👍🤗👍
It was beautiful not like today's gooye stuff you get it was wrapped in grease proof paper and didn't go stail and mouldy in a day like the rubbish they call bread today my dad worked for sunblessd so we allways had bread 🍞 😉
Bread tasted lovely bread today is horrible & cost a fortune . Waitrose own slice bread is lovely & stays fresh well over a week 65p great value or M&S own 65p . Wenzils bakery bread is very nice just a few tips worth trying .
I bet it smelt incredible in that factory! I remember going to the bread discount store with my mom when I was little and it smelt so wonderful. Fresh baked bread yum!!
Heather, you just made me feel hungry. Tummy hasn't been alright since last night but seems this video and your comment was what it was looking for, perfect!
I regularly drove past the large McVities in South Manchester. Many times the air would be thick with the aroma of fresh baked cakes and biscuits. My Aunt worked there for years and always had a tin full of misshapes and broken ones that the staff bought for pennies.
I just watched a 15 min documentary about bread and I love it!!! Such a cute video!! I've never tried bread pudding but now I want to!! And all those other bread recipes! What?! Bread bits in an egg omelet, totally, but grilled cheese sandwich? That's new! 💜🍞
i remember in the late 60s 70s, my grandmother when we kids would visit on a Sunday afternoon it was bread and butter, sometimes with jam if we where lucky, watch the old black, white telly, and we where happy, to this day bread and butter still gives me great joy with a nice pot of tea, yes pot of tea, made with tea leaves and in a china cup.
I love this video! Brings back so many happy memories from my childhood 💖 I can still smell the aroma of the sandwiches my wonderful mother would make us with baloney, cheese, lettuce and tomatoes .Everything tasted better when you were a kid.
I too remember my mum and dad used to take us on road trips from Adelaide to Melbourne and we would stop off to buy hot bread from the local bakery and mum made us cheese, tomato, and fritz sandwiches in the car. Great memories and great days. 🙃

Somebody asked if the factory still exists. It was in Woodingdean, between Falmer and Rottingdean in East Sussex. I lived down the road from the Falmer Road ,1959 to 1969. The Sunblest factory closed (1970s?) and so did the Jaycee furniture factory next door. They were derelict, but the sites were eventually cleared. My mother worked at the Sunblest factory in the 1960s. It was a very fine location, up on the chalk South Downs east of Brighton.
I remember *Sunblest* bread. Back in the days when white sliced loaves came in _thin_ or _medium_ one only bought _thick_ for toasting. Nothing nicer than a thin sliced sandwich. I don’t think _thin_ sliced exists anymore. Better value too, more sandwiches for your money.
These are such lovely films of a relatively clean and innocent time. The time of Enid Blyton and Richmal Crompton and PG Wodehouse and James Herriot. Very enjoyable British Pathe films.
I don't know why this showed up on my list but it did and it was ... delightful! How peaceful and predictable life was back in 1962. As the billboard said, "Beer! It's lovely!" The cottage loaves at 4:20 look divine. You'd never find anything like these varieties where I live. It's all fast-produced full-of-preservatives loaves that, even right after baking, have no yeast odor or flavor at all. And they sit on the store shelves for a week or more. Oh, well. It is what it is, I guess. Cheers!
I can remember the old ploughman's lunch, with pickles at the pubs when we were young. We would stop off for lunch when on an outing with our parents or when we were going on holidays..
Looks like you got me wrong on that one, I was saying no you're not the only one binge watching coz I am too along with many others no doubt. Vote reform.
@@aaronsinger No because all the ingredients were virtually 100% organic, mainly meaning the grains. Mostly free from pesticides and other forms of bleaching, preservatives ect.
I also baked bread for work... but not like this! It was cool to see the same process you do at home, but larger. Some of these scenes are beautiful and so pleasing to the eye.
Thank you, that was fresh relaxing break from murder and mayhem. I was not even a year old when this was originally made, about the same as the baby in the mother’s arms!
Not a single person wouldn't want to go back to them times when things were easy no stress and working people were all happy and proud of what they did
Love watching this video, I was sixteen in 1962 left school worked for Cave Austin grocery store no supermarkets then, we had to queue for our daily bread, lovely days. Thank you.
Love this, I can smell the delicious bread. Now days people say not to eat bread because of the sugar and its fattening, well, I don't care what they say, I love my whole wheat and Rye bread. 🍞🍞🍞🥖🥪😋😉
Life seemed so much more pleasant back then. There was a bakery for many years in Dublin (owned by a man originally from Saxmundham in England) whose Cottage Loaves were legendary. My mum bought one every Friday 😋
Wonderful time capsule of our baking industry, when the majority of our population were in full time work, You could leave one job , and get another in the same day. which I did several times, until I found the one I liked best.and that kept me busy for almost 40 yrs.
This is great. And look men working and no automation. These machines they had look primitive but they lasted for many years without breaking down. Men enjoying there work.❤

My dad worked at wonderloaf. They even had a vinyl record they gave employees in the 70’s. What a wonderful memory.
Venus • I want you to find all these workers now! It's important!
What did they get paid an hour then ?
What was the vinyl, about.!
Absolutely lovely to see this old footage life and world was a different place then it all seemed so simple. Anyway i could smell that lovely bread 🍞 😉
Look at the quality of video even back then was fabulous
Can we go back to those days , remember Fine Fare with my mum 😊
The late 1950s and the 1960s were the best of all times for me. No doubt about it.
Where I live we are so lucky to still have a bakers that makes all it's own bread and cakes. The difference to supermarket bread is noticeable.
well, what a blessing event for you matey ^^
I have watched this many times , it's almost like watching your favourite comfort food being made,bravo
As a kid I used to go to our local bakery and watch this for hours. From the initial mixing to watch it be made into loaves and put in the large ovens. The smell was mouthwatering. Same sort of machines as in the video.😊
I’m fascinated by the invention of all the mechanized machines. I’ll like to meet people who invent and perfect them. Geniuses.
Look how clean the Bakery was and the pride that the white coated and hatted Bakers took in their work! Those little Cottage Loaves were what my future Husband and I used to snack on, together with cheese and pickled onions, toward the end of our date. Lovely, sitting in his little green Mini car talking and eating with me drinking bitter lemon and he, a pint of Ansells Mild.
Your kisses must have stunk!😅😂
What lovely pictures your description created in my head ! You should be a writer. ❤
I'm not British but what's it called when you cut the crust off of white bread and put little cucumber salad, or whatever you ppl put in the little sandwiches
@@shable1436 A waste of the crust. No seriously: they're just cucumber sandwiches. Three ingredients: sliced white bread thinly spread with butter, and very thinly sliced cucumber. Hard to go wrong if you use good ingredients.
@@tomsdottir ok just sandwiches, not something like chips, and we call fries? 😂. I thought finger sandwiches are called something else at tea parties there. Like it's a long tradition of calling them finger or tea sandwiches, when I was a kid and heard finger sandwiches, I thought of disgusting things, only because in America we used to eat everything, from bulls balls, to liver pudding, to chicken feet, necks, to fish eyeballs. So my child mind ran wild with fingers sticking out of bread, 😂 IDK
At 10:33, look at the ad: "Beer - it's lovely!" - That's a realm of simplicity that I have never seen in any other advertisement in my whole life.
I know the bakery employees were immune to the smell but I bet it was fabulous to smell that yeast bread baking. 🍞
They didn’t mind it. What with the chain smoking and martinis they had during lunch. 🍸 🚬
I don't know about then but industrial bakeries these days smell so bad that if I had to make a choice between spending an hour in an industrial bakery or an hour in a sewer, I'd pick the sewer.
@@slygg It must be the way they process things now, I remember the old Southern Biscuit Co. (FFV) in Richmond VA before it closed, people loved to roll their car windows down when driving past, it smelled like Vanilla cake baking, I guess those days are past, I don't eat out and cook, prepare all of what I eat, try to buy organic whenever possible, the 60's is when industry/big corporations started changing things, using preservatives, GMO's, adding chemicals to change taste so they could get people addicted to what they sell, adding corn syrup and creating obesity in this country, we really need to go back to basics when it comes to food production.
@@Alusnovalotus It was probably beer 🍺since these were blue collar workers not pencil pushers.
Beer was the natural choice of bakers, yeast again a principle part of both bread-making and brewing.
The man said '' you can not speed up the process of proving the loaves'', today, they use rapid yeast with very little proving; flour mixed with some chemicals and then we ask ourselves "why on earth so many people have gut or immune issues". The bread is only one example of today's food industry.
I agree as it is odd that so many people have problems with eating bread in recent times. There are certain breads I have to avoid or else I suffer stomach ache hours after.
Sonzoul1, you mean “proving the loaves”.
@@judeirwin2222 really? One of those that has to correct others.
Correct l think so many more people appear to be ill these days, because of the way our food is treated?
America traded morals and decency for profit. Explains why society is crumbling more and more by the day.
They delivered it to your door without booking on line amazing.
Gary, punctuation is even more amazing.
@@judeirwin2222 so is minding your own business.
I don't know why, but this made me feel like crying. I guess because the world seemed so much simpler then. This was just a few years before I was born, and this is the England that I grew up in America dreaming about and still dream about, even though I fear this England no longer exists. I wish I grew up with small bakeries and greengroces instead of impersonal supermarkets. Everything just looked so lovely.
this video makes me crave on eating bread
You're right; by the end of the 1970s we had gone the same way as America...almost. Master baker's shops did survive in a few places, and in recent years there's been some new artisan bakery business start-ups. Fortunately, there's also been a backlash against the sliced, tasteless, fake-yeast, chewy rubbish from the mega-factories and all the main British supermarket chains have fresh bakery counters. At least we Brits can be thankful that even our rubbish bread doesn't contain certain additives allowed in America!
The excitement in his voice when they bring out the baps is admirable, I wish presenters had this level of natural excitement and passion in narration, its like he's actually just talking to a room of people, and its a nice change.
I recognised the voice - then eventually the face - of the actor Howard Marion-Crawford, although I didn´t see a credit. Besides film and TV, he was wonderful in radio plays as was his one-time wife, the much loved Mary Wimbush.
Thanks to The British pathe
@@unclebill1202 Thank you Uncle Bill for the information.
He was a good voice artist. But don’t forget 5he writer, who researched and then wrote every word of the script, everybpause, every casual “aside” so the narration flowed and sounded natural. Writers create so much of your world and get very little notice or reward. Think about it.
@@unclebill1202Wasn't he Dr.Watson on the Sherlock Holmes television series of the late '50's and in "The Adventures of Robin Hood"?
What a life those women had! Stayed home all day, had time to dress and primp in the morning. Fresh bread butter and milk right to the door. Some life!
I am impressed, even 60 years later...
Stuff like this helps me be extremely thankful that I can cook, and I can bake. The benefit of a decades long career in the the restaurant industry.
Totally agree.
Same here working in restaurants sure taught me well n of course mom n grandma
Piękny film...zdumiewające jest to jak w tamtych latach wyposażona była fabryka do produkcji pieczywa...maszyny w tych jasnych kolorach, szacunek ludzi do pracy jak i do konsumpcji tych produktów, opakowania papierowe...cudownie 🥰 aż zapachniało tym wszystkim u mnie w domku. Dziękuję za ten film 👍🤗👍
It is beautiful. And the basic wholesomeness of baking bread.☘️👍
Yes it's really amazing how they did manufacture those things in that decade
There is truly something special about watching the times women baked and cooked and the Bread or Milkman came and delivered to your door! I grew up on that era somewhat and I must say those days we knocked on our neighbors door and borrowed a couple of eggs or glass of milk or sugar was special. Now we are lucky if we even know the neighbors in our area and who lives there!?
100% true. I miss those times when we , people, used to be much closer to each other than nowadays...
Greetings from Moscow.
I wish you all the very best, British people. ☺️🤗🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Peace and love.
Svetlana.
@@СветланаЮдина-п4я Svetlana greetings from America I miss the old days even when I came to visit it over there in 1991 and 97 and 98 was a different time people were more generous and cared with each other you came to visit with a bag of potatoes and a bottle of vodka and everybody sat up till midnight talking about everything.
But life has changed completely now the world is not the same greetings from America to you my dear
мир и мужество и любовь
mir i muzhestvo i lyubov!!🙏🙏💖💖🌺🌺
@George Dave love the comments section for this video. i recall my grandmother back in the 60 and 70s would make Sunday roast dinner for all the family and would always much up an extra plate for the elderly neighbour next door. regular as clockwork she would shout over the garden fence and hand pass her a cooked dinner, simpler times. Milkman would deliver every day, we would take a bowl out to get ice cream from the ice cream van in the afternoon - raspberry ripple if you were lucky :)
My neighbors have stolen my personal items from my porch..That's how ugly neighbors are.
@@eva5601 eva where do you live that this happened so very sad to hear……I’m so sorry
Good morning ! Peoples doing their Works ! Children playing in the streets and yards ! A beautiful sunny day ! What a beautiful missing time ! Congratulations for this video ! ⭐⭐⭐
Customer handling at its best . Everyone was polite and humble
The good old days which will never be replaced.
As long as you were white, straight, and a dude, then they were great!
@@diagastar7261 I am white and born poor my life is horrible, Raised in a very bad country in an extremely violent neighborhood.
@@diagastar7261 what difference does it make to be born a man?! none my life is still horrible and I have no pleasure in living.
Ишо лучше времена впереди, не трындите!)
As a white US woman (from immigrant parents, Mom from Scotland) I also see not only white bread, but only white people. At 75 years old, I only see a complete unawareness of the rest of the world when one refers to this as the "good old days", but for whom?
the 60's were a cool time. That bread looks amazing too.
I found the bread making process hypnotic! All that puffy-fluffy dough and the thumps as it plops down to be shaped
Just blest to have such wonderful people who can operate all those huge machines. God has Graciouly given so much to mankind. Thank you all God first for our Daily Bread. Julie Kilburn
👏👏👏
Как всё цивильно, культурно, чисто и продумано, смотреть приятно, а уж ЕСТЬ........и того приятней !!!!!!
Do you have small bakeries in Russia?
@@chriscoughlan5221 Да, у нас есть небольшие пекарни.
The pride they took in their work and final product is clearly evident.
I bet it smelt lovely in that factory! Mmmm, fresh bread is heaven...🙂👍🇬🇧
The whole neighborhood surrounding the factory probably smelled heavenly.
I love the commentator speaks so clearly just how it used to be
It’s Howard Marion Crawford
What a delightful and informative video about bread..life seem so much more simpler in those days..very nostalgic indeed..thank you for posting 🙏
When I was little the bread man used to come round , bread cakes and biscuits in one of those big baskets lovely 😊
Loved it!!! Loved Watson as a Narrator for an Infomercial.
Endless they are, the ways of enjoying bread! Thanks so much for that information, good sir!!
That's some dangerous equipment there. Love the big round carts and nobody wearing gloves, and no dead customers. Thank you so much. I'll subscribe.
And, no tattoos or long hair.
Yeah that does seem to be concerning no one where gloves, I do hope that they washed their hands first.
When I was at Uni, I worked part time at the McVitie's factory in Harlesden. I remember one night a worker leaned over the mixing machine too far and his mobile phone and a bag or marijuana fell into the mixer from his top pocket. The mobile was smashed into bits and the whole batch was thrown. His marijuana was taken into the office so he could be dealt with in the morning by managers. He somehow managed to get into the office and got the marijuana back so they had no evidence other than the smashed up mobile phone.

@@TheNakedeyes78 hi . 8.15 at the dispatch department there is a lady if I saw good
I love watching these videos just magnificent. Simple things that everybody appreciated.
Yes back then truly appreciated,,but now day's they don't
A beautiful film... it's amazing how the factory was equipped for the production of bread in those years... machines in these bright colors, people's respect for work and consumption of these products, paper packaging... wonderful 🥰 it smelled so good me in the cottage. Thank you for this movie 👍🤗👍
man this is like homemade bread the way they made it i bet it was good af. looked way better then what we get today from a store.
It was beautiful not like today's gooye stuff you get it was wrapped in grease proof paper and didn't go stail and mouldy in a day like the rubbish they call bread today my dad worked for sunblessd so we allways had bread 🍞 😉
Exactly like that!!! Except with the additives, preservatives and margarine and no grandma.
Bread tasted lovely bread today is horrible & cost a fortune . Waitrose own slice bread is lovely & stays fresh well over a week 65p great value or M&S own 65p . Wenzils bakery bread is very nice just a few tips worth trying .
👍👍👍👍
Simple. Big box stores ruined it
I bet it smelt incredible in that factory! I remember going to the bread discount store with my mom when I was little and it smelt so wonderful. Fresh baked bread yum!!
Heather, you just made me feel hungry. Tummy hasn't been alright since last night but seems this video and your comment was what it was looking for, perfect!
А где это было?
@@alla3814 South England. East of Brighton.
I regularly drove past the large McVities in South Manchester. Many times the air would be thick with the aroma of fresh baked cakes and biscuits. My Aunt worked there for years and always had a tin full of misshapes and broken ones that the staff bought for pennies.
@@ranjittyagi2846 How's your tummy been lately? Better? I'm happy I helped a little. 😊
It takes me back to my childhood in the 60's. Very wholesome and a good simple way of life. No immigrants to destroy it.
Immigrants, Gimmigrants.
Exactly
Great! Thank you so much Such a peaceful world with children playing in the street, smiling people and not too much traffic 🇨🇭👍😃😃🕊️
Nice to see children playing outside there houses 😊
Switzerland and some other European countries have still preserved such craftsmanship and ethics.
Loved a crusty loaf…on the way back from buying a loaf for my mum I would always pick at the end of it…big hole at the end time I got home 🤣
I just watched a 15 min documentary about bread and I love it!!! Such a cute video!! I've never tried bread pudding but now I want to!! And all those other bread recipes! What?! Bread bits in an egg omelet, totally, but grilled cheese sandwich? That's new! 💜🍞
I practically grew up on grilled cheese. Goes great with tomato soup or chili.
i remember in the late 60s 70s, my grandmother when we kids would visit on a Sunday afternoon it was bread and butter, sometimes with jam if we where lucky, watch the old black, white telly, and we where happy, to this day bread and butter still gives me great joy with a nice pot of tea, yes pot of tea, made with tea leaves and in a china cup.
I finally get my breads delivered to my house . These people were visionaries!
After 7yrs this video pops in my you tube recommended n now I'm loving it.....a very cool video.👍👌❤
I love this video! Brings back so many happy memories from my childhood 💖 I can still smell the aroma of the sandwiches my wonderful mother would make us with baloney, cheese, lettuce and tomatoes .Everything tasted better when you were a kid.
I too remember my mum and dad used to take us on road trips from Adelaide to Melbourne and we would stop off to buy hot bread from the local bakery and mum made us cheese, tomato, and fritz sandwiches in the car. Great memories and great days. 🙃
А мы в детстве в Советском Союзе..пойдешь за хлебом, пока донесешь до дома, так пол булки сьешь : теплый, корочка хрустящая...сейчас такого хлеба нет. Бутерброд - сливочное масло, а сверху варенье и с чаем...

Thx from Lithuania , great movie and real true English
Love videos of life before I was born. Blows my mind that I didn't exist down on earth.🤯
Plenty of family owned bakeries that still use the old techniques to this day
Somebody asked if the factory still exists. It was in Woodingdean, between Falmer and Rottingdean in East Sussex. I lived down the road from the Falmer Road ,1959 to 1969. The Sunblest factory closed (1970s?) and so did the Jaycee furniture factory next door. They were derelict, but the sites were eventually cleared. My mother worked at the Sunblest factory in the 1960s. It was a very fine location, up on the chalk South Downs east of Brighton.
I remember *Sunblest* bread. Back in the days when white sliced loaves came in _thin_ or _medium_ one only bought _thick_ for toasting.
Nothing nicer than a thin sliced sandwich. I don’t think _thin_ sliced exists anymore. Better value too, more sandwiches for your money.
I stayed in Portslade for a while, the other side of Brighton as you know, I really liked that part of the UK.
That's so sad to hear😓😓😓
I feel sad it closed
Why closed
These are such lovely films of a relatively clean and innocent time. The time of Enid Blyton and Richmal Crompton and PG Wodehouse and James Herriot. Very enjoyable British Pathe films.
@@clarea1801 you're calling Michael Rosen the woke brigade? Get a hobby.
I don't know why this showed up on my list but it did and it was ... delightful! How peaceful and predictable life was back in 1962. As the billboard said, "Beer! It's lovely!" The cottage loaves at 4:20 look divine. You'd never find anything like these varieties where I live. It's all fast-produced full-of-preservatives loaves that, even right after baking, have no yeast odor or flavor at all. And they sit on the store shelves for a week or more. Oh, well. It is what it is, I guess. Cheers!
I can remember the old ploughman's lunch, with pickles at the pubs when we were young. We would stop off for lunch when on an outing with our parents or when we were going on holidays..
Am I the only one binge watching these videos to escape from how life is now 😢
No.
@@johnmills1816 well I’m glad you’re life is so amazing, keep that 💩 up!

Me 2
You’re not the only one)
Beautiful 😀 you won't be able to get bread like this anymore.
@@aaronsinger No because all the ingredients were virtually 100% organic, mainly meaning the grains. Mostly free from pesticides and other forms of bleaching, preservatives ect.
I also baked bread for work... but not like this! It was cool to see the same process you do at home, but larger. Some of these scenes are beautiful and so pleasing to the eye.
Thank you, that was fresh relaxing break from murder and mayhem. I was not even a year old when this was originally made, about the same as the baby in the mother’s arms!
I love all bread just as long as its British. Nothing beats the fresh scent of freshly baked bread 🍞 ❤
Not a single person wouldn't want to go back to them times when things were easy no stress and working people were all happy and proud of what they did
😂👍❤️✌️🇫🇴.. Jag utan datorer och mobiler... 🌻🌻🌻
Love watching this video, I was sixteen in 1962 left school worked for Cave Austin grocery store no supermarkets then, we had to queue for our daily bread, lovely days. Thank you.
My dad and I love watching these old programmes. There is a great series called Look At Life, absolutely brilliant, I recommend it
Love this, I can smell the delicious bread. Now days people say not to eat bread because of the sugar and its fattening, well, I don't care what they say, I love my whole wheat and Rye bread. 🍞🍞🍞🥖🥪😋😉
You keep enjoying it my friend
I love this video. And I love bread. Just adore it. 😋🔥❤️🌹☺️👌🤗
We are very fortunate in our little town in ironwood mi. We have an old school bread maker start up here. Very high quality.
Life seemed so much more pleasant back then. There was a bakery for many years in Dublin (owned by a man originally from Saxmundham in England) whose Cottage Loaves were legendary. My mum bought one every Friday 😋
Wonderful time capsule of our baking industry, when the majority of our population were in full time work, You could leave one job , and get another in the same day. which I did several times, until I found the one I liked best.and that kept me busy for almost 40 yrs.
This is great. And look men working and no automation. These machines they had look primitive but they lasted for many years without breaking down. Men enjoying there work.❤
