Was a really classic series and brings back good memories as a child watching this. Once Zorba died and the new station was built, the series declined for me big time. Made many want to be fire fighters I’m sure and great to see again. Wish they would repeat it.
5:06 Said this before when this shout was last up somewhere, but I always loved how Nick jumped in to follow George. He doesn't stand about and demand and order, he gets stuck in and follows George's lead to help.
It wouldn’t be as good as the original, but I wish they would do a reboot of this series. New appliances and all. Would give it a fresh modern look. Wouldn’t even have to include the original characters, a new cast maybe. A new British firefighting drama is needed big time. I like the Police stuff but there’s too much of it.
Well, I've done some research on exemptions and non exemptions on blue lights. What George has done is he went past a light, without treating it as a give way, even though emergency drivers are supposed to.
@@Charlzey1998 Yes, that is a good argument. But some cars nowadays can be made with soundproof materials, or people just play their radios too loud. There is a good reason why George should've treated that red light as a give way. Plus, if there was an accident, a British court would most certainly find him at 100% fault.
@@johnarat9618As far as I know Emergency vehicles can go through red lights, you hear a Siren you move out its way, so its the other way around, cars etc have to give way to the emergency vehicle and you can hear them in a car.
I can’t believe Geoff almost missed the appliance, that’s almost like Brian from Backdraft (American Chicago Fire Department film) hitting the door towards the end of the movie
@@damonk3674 All that says is the rank you were. Both Georgiadis, and the officer at the end of the video, are Station Officers. Georgiadis is wearing a prototype of a new helmet being tested. The other officer is wearing what was the official uniform at the time. I'm just curious which white helmet "model" you have, as you said, whether it was the shape of Georgiadis', or the other Station Officer.
You can watch every single episode of London's Burning on Dvd. There are two dvd box sets. Series 1 to 8 part one that finishes with the factory fire episode where Recall gets injured and Series 8 part 2 that starts with the factory fire episode where John Hallam falls through the roof through to series 14. The Factory Fire Episodes in Series 8 are split between two box sets.

It was my mum what told me about this and how it was on every Sunday i started to watch it at a young age I’m now planning to join the brigade

Sid and Nick were my two favorite govs
This is definitely a rare shout, thanks for posting it, definitely gave me goosebumps when George stating that’s where his gym is

But the LFB is not the same it’s been hit by the PC bomb so would be really rubbish
Remembering George’s driving skills~
Georges drivings literally taking the LFB 5 minute arrival policy to another level 😂😂😂 even though the majority of drivings an actual LFB driver 😂😂😂

@@johnarat9618 vans at fault too, if you hear sirens you're supposed to slow down and check mirrors and junctions

"George, where you going, Geoff with me"

Ahh the prototype F600! Only change they did for the production model was re profiling the visor
What streaming service can you get that show on?

REALLY AW CHERRS MATE😄😄😄👍
I've still got my white helmet in this model. Good gear in its time
Is that the one Georgiadis is wearing? Or the one on the officer that George was talking to at the end?
@@grahamspragg7494 I was area commander so my black mark was thicker
