I just loved those Morris Minors, Vanguard Spacemasters, FX Holdens and Radio Controlled Police Cars, so moderne. The Austin 8 Tourer would've been a fun joy ride.
In the record collection on the floor at 5.19 there is an Eydie Gorme record - my mum had that one and Eydie was about as rebellious as Doris Day .....
Carlton,Beach Road Ricketts Point/Black Rock?(The Beaumaris Players)Had no idea car theft was so bad in Melbourne back then.So there were bored teenagers then too.There are still private school "progressive parents" today))Thanks!
One newspaper clip has GTV 9 on it and they first went to air in Sep 1956 just in time for the Melbourne Olympics. My guess is about 1960 when I was 8 years old.
@@benji274 Thanks Ben and Adrian. I watched again and I was a few years out as you stated. One article had Princess Anne turning eight that day, so that was August 15, 1958. All the songs labelled on the record player were released in 1958 too, I especially remember "Purple People Eater". Another article mentioned events to do with Indonesia in 1957 while another part of the article wrote of what will be in 1959 there, so I'd say late 1958 to early 1959 at a more educated guess.
@@CalebCluff - I checked my late grandfather, William Jackson, Police Valour Medal for disarming a gunman in Ballarat in 1926 and it has Victorian Police on it so you are correct I assume. However it is Victoria Police now as it the police force of the state of Victoria. The cap badge has Victoria Police on it too. A hate how the media and parliamentarians mangle this states name like Parliament of Victoria not Victorian Parliament, Governor of Victoria not Victorian Governor and so on.
Okay - now it's getting complicated. The description of the film is probably not original anyway so maybe we'll leave it as the contemporary version of Victoria Police. Thanks for the history lesson though.
Problem was there was no TV and milk bars were a hive of criminality, too many milk shakes, hamburgers, rock roll jukeboxes sent the young liberal youth on the wrong path.
its that alcohol and tobacco , bad stuff , kills you in or out of the car , yet it's legal,don't forget famous swimmers have killed their mothers , nothing happenend
It’s that terrible jazz and rock ‘n’ roll they all listen to!
Clearly this film was no deterrent.
These Are The Delinquents In The 1950s

I blame those old original Pinball Machines (1:41) that didn't have flippers. Comm'on, you'd be bored too!
Pinball wizards in later life (The Who, Quadraphonia)
Shit that would be boring wonder if it had a lilt mechanism in it too .
Sorry 'You blame Pinball Machine for people stealing car's lol wow really that's backwards thinkin if iv ever herd it my child.
Oh the shame !!!!! All the neighbours are watching and gossiping
The guy that stole the car had a look of pure evil about him. I blame that "Devil Dancing " they were doing
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣love it !!!!
1:15 Parental carelessness. 5:00 Progressive father
5:19 We're reaching levels of ruckus that shouldn't be possible
I cannot condone ruckus.

Peter - the time link works with a : rather than a . between the hour and minute. You can then click on it and it goes to that part of the clip.
@@adrianjackson2696 thank you

I imagine the parents in particular, are pissed off. "What the hell were you thinking, stealing !@#!@$'s car? You should know better than that!"
1:00 Proper Victoria Police car siren that was better that the Yank/Euro crap sirens used today.
Euro or Nazi and Red Neck Yank sirens we don't need in Australia. Bring back our original sirens as depicted in this excelled film.
Count Basie, Scatman Crothers, Eydie Gorme, Meade "Lux" Lewis...
Oh, just wait until Iron Butterfly, Pink Floyd, Led Zep and Bowie hit the stage :P
Yep - it's only a matter of time before someone bites the head off a small animal.
2:55 No fat Victoria Policemen back then. There used to be a minimum height limit and this policeman look 6ft
LOL .. Mad Max 3:00
Gee. Nothing has changed in close to sixty years. Teens still pinching cars. But now smashing them up.
Only now they are African.
Anyone catch the year this was made? I thought around 1955 but I could be out years!

The young delinquents look like young Liberal or young Labor members. They would all be 80 years old now, if still alive, in 2019.
Error - Title description, second last line, should read Victoria Police not Victorian Police.
Righto! We'll change it. Don't want to get on the wrong side of the law.
@@NFSAFilms Thanks, its a common fault even on the ABC.
Actually it’s the Victorian Police Force At this stage. Not Victoria Police til the mid 90s
