Interesting to see that L'Enfance du Christ trailer. Back then, ITV usually threw in a highbrow offering at some point in Xmas week to get the light-ents heavy schedule passed by the IBA.
I am certain that I have seen the Anglia version of this clip, although it might have been Christmas Day instead. ITN bulletin looks familiar. 0:41 What a load of balls. 3:02 The male customer is voiced by George Layton, so it's not surprising that Griffin (Richard Briers) calls him "George".
Many thanks for uploading this
I bloody love that christmas Persil advert. I used to think that it was a lot longer though.
That first news item! Bloody hell!! I sat with my jaw open all the way through it.
The downstairs neighbours must have been cowering under the bed!

I didnt know 7/11 had made it over to the UK in the mid 80's I'd thought they'd always been a US thing...
Inspector Kite from the early years of The Bill in the British Airways ad
The Bill 2 part episode Cold Turkey appears to be based on this
Police would never storm a place like that now. They would give the guy a free pass and see him on his way.
When British Airways was special and the best airline in the sky. Willie Walsh ruined the airline over 10 years ago.
that police entry was a right botch-job!!
I wonder if the ban on fox hunting now has caused the huge number of foxes roaming our city centres and outlying suburbs??
Yes. Plus it's much easier to eat discarded burgers and chips than chase rabbits. Foxes aren't daft.
