I remember Charley 😁. It wouldn't mean anything to younger people though

t wouldn't mean anything to younger people though

I am sure they could get up to speed!

And it would bring back memories for older people Grin

As long as they don’t use the death waiting to drag kids into water or the 4 minute warning ones - scary as hell. They’d need to set up a trauma helpline these days.

Or the clink click or Rolf Harris swimming ones (for obvious reasons).

They didn't mess about in the 70s. Warning, one of these features Jimmy Savile.

Well you could run those again ‘behave or the saville will get you’.

I say being back the potters wheel...

Yes, genius idea! Agree younger gen could quickly get up to speed.

My sister went to the BFI once to see a showing of public information films from the 60s and 70s. She said it was brilliant. We all loved them didn’t we?

I just watched the NHS one - great - but not for children.
