- Sunblest Bakeries Present - Our Daily Bread.
Wheat fields; C/Us of ears of wheat growing. Sheep being herded along road. Shepherd speaks to farmer (?) carrying eggs. Farmer walks up empty village street. Rector goes into pub. People chatting and drinking inside. Rector chats to two men talking about wheat production - one is from Canada. They all talk about the harvest festival ceremony to be held in the pub. They look at the display for this year - bread baked in the shape of corn bales and vegetables spread on a table. Landlord bangs glass on bar for quiet, then the service begins. Everyone stands and sings hymn 'Come Ye Thankful People, Come'. Shots of village at dusk. People in pub say 'Our Father' prayer.
Several shots show wheat on cargo ship, coming from Canada to Southampton and transported by trucks to Sunblest's southern mills. Mill buildings - look quite traditional, incorporating a water mill. Miller (man we saw in the pub earlier) talks to lorry driver about the load which is tipped out into vats. Man and another worker examine grains. Several shots of machinery sifting and weighing the grains. River runs under the mill; shot of machinery turning. Footage of grains running through machinery, being broken down, sifted and purified. Workers fill and tie sacks of flour then drop them down a chute.
In the Sunblest laboratories we see scientists at work, testing miniature machinery and flour quality. A special machine tests dough mixture strength. Scientist look at graphs. At Sunblest bakery, men in white coats look at huge electronically-controlled machines that turn the flour into dough. Flour is unloaded from container lorry. Man walks past huge storage bins in warehouse. Shots of machinery and buttons. Dough mixture is turned out of large vat in dough rooms. Soya flour, milk powder and fat are measured out and put into vat with flour. Shot of water and yeast mixture in a vat.

I’d give up every one of the luxuries I have today for the opportunity to return in time 60 years and live a much simpler time…
these Sunblests Films are oddly extremely satisfying and relaxing to watch and listen to.
An insight into a previous generation.
I agree!
Whenever I can't sleep, I watch this. So relaxing!
This was nearly 60 years ago. I wished life had never changed to what it is right now. Big shame & losses.
Bread was .25 U S
This video is describing the automated mass production of bread. That is still going on today. What exactly are you missing ??
@Top hat Animation if this were a video describing how bread was home made 50 years ago, I could understand the nostalgia. But it’s not. They are baking the bread in a factory, slicing it and wrapping it up, just like we do today. What is there to miss ? The antiquated mixers without protective bars?
@Top hat Animation Liking the video is not the point of my question. I like the video too. Strictly speaking it was samessa’s comment I was replying to, not yours. And you’re right : you don’t have to justify your likes or dislikes. So you should have no problem ignoring my responses.
@@rodittis They're not referring to the baking of bread at all, nor are they referring to factories. They're referring to how they miss how life in general was, or (if they're younger) they're at least referring to how life at that time comes across now by watching old videos like this.
A considerable element a younger person might not realize is, each decade has its ups and downs. Those who didn't live then won't necessarily know all of the issues that went on back then. I don't speak as though I was there, because I wasn't.
I do admit, though, that I feel relaxed and with my mind at ease because of the soundtrack to this video and this particular narrator's ways of speaking. It comes across gently and nicely, in a way that modern videos simply don't do.
This is better than any, ANY, modern day television programme.
i'm a little stressed and this makes me feel so good!
I can watch this time and time again very relaxing indeed probably because I remember the vans and bakery..........Thanks for posting
Wonderful. Those were the days. I was a kid when they made this film. I can remember getting a French stick for mum. Or a large loaf. By the time I got home I chewed lumps out of the crust at both ends. Yum. Those were the days.
Hope mum tanned that hide! 😂 Only joking, cheers.
So glad i was born in 1965 i would hate being young today it's horrible
Miss the good ole & simple days , were the world still was okay & people were more grateful. ❤🍞🥖
This video is great, Pathé films are the best!
Love how that sheep dog is just chillin and then a wayward straggler alights her attention and she springs to action to chide it back in line and then she lays back down
Its like watching historical movie 😍
thats because it is
@@HenryLeslieGraham documentary, not a movie.
@@petesmitt lol i know. movie = film =/ fantasy or fictional
Thank you so much for all the hard work you put into our video it gives us a view back to the past
Thank You 😊 Your video was very interesting.
I really enjoyed watching this.
Had this brand in South Africa growing up in the 70s and 80s.
Watching this while having honey spread over a toasted artesano bread dipping it in warm milk
Bloody hell i can remember Sunblest from when i was a kid 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I love love love this channel!
The beginning of this film felt rather like the opening of a midsomer murder. I was expecting to see a body oddly killed.
The England my parents left behind when they emigrated to Australia in 1963. Upon their return in the sumer of 1976, the land had changed to being almost unrecognisable.
I think we all know how it became “unrecognizable” between 1963 and 1976.
@@ArmyJames I know what you are saying and I totally agree.
How was it different?
We should save these in some kind of format that they can use for after the Apocalypse.
TY for sharing I enjoyed watching it.
This film's plot was a nice slow burn, but it was worth it for that doozy of a second half. Great character development throughout.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH No.
I truly believe life was more honest in those days before greed and corruption took over
There’s one in every group!
Nice old bread
So nice and funny storytellings :)
They have a bar at the church? Now I understand why it was the "good ol days", 🎉😅🙏🍻
I know some wheat farmers in the midwest US that would like to have some words about the "strongest wheat".
Thanks so much
Hey! That's Dr. Watson!

I see kids on the Internet these days, labeling anything they see as innocent or quaint as "wholesome." "This video is so wholesome." But this video is indeed wholesome, and modern people would do well to watch it. Thanks.
In the very beginning of the video, the village square that the man with the bowl is walking through looks exactly like the village that was in an episode of Two Fat Ladies. They made cakes for a festival benefitting the church I think it was. The buildings look exactly the same! Wouldn't that be interesting if it was the same spot?
This feels like an art film about a different universe.
yeah sweet slumber what this life was being set up behind harvest 💚😇
Amazing ❤
the actor/narrator plays Watson in Sherlock Holmes.

Long live England
The lovely Howard Marion Crawford
Vicar of Dibley vibes
Very interesting. Makes you think that Sunblessed bread was actually edible.
Wish the color was better...great film!
This documentaries implying theyve improved the nutritional quality of bread over the process that has stood the test of time
I adore the music used in the introduction and throughout,does anyone know the composition title and composer?
The instrumental sort of reminds me of Gone with The Wind soundtracks 😁
And that vicar used to be Nelson Gabriel in The Archers - Jack May!
Nice and comfy :)
love this XD
A time when life was more decent. I buy Walmart English Toasting bread. A crunch in every single bite.
They were telling us to use wonder bread
the scots like the nutty flavour. Hilarious
I was born in 1962
you've won a cookie.
Possibly the beginning of the end
Bloody shame ALL Canadian wheat is GM now. Even the deer won't eat it, but we do. Spent 15 years in Manitoba and Saskatchewan learning just how much poison we now eat. Bloody shame
Is the mill still in operation! Does Sunbliss still make bread?
I have been trying to find out, but no luck.
@@georgepierson4920 Sunblest, still around I think.
I doubt very much the mill is still in operation. But you can still buy sunblest bread its made by allied bakery. 🇬🇧
I really want the music in this vid to be out on Spotify. Anyone know where I can find the soundtrack?
I can’t believe we both are having the same idea, though i am sure we are in different continents ❤😁.

Prayer GoPala Krishnan!
so well narrated...in those days..there was class...who is the narrator?
Howard Marion Crawford
With all this expensive machinery, and all these scientists on the payroll, how on earth did Sunblest ever turn a profit off of sixpence loaves of bread?
What you got there John?
I got 16 ton's of the finest Columbian coke you ever snorted.
호주산 밀 좋다는건 되게 오래된 이야기였구만....
Is there a Muslim version, asking for a friend?
🙃🙃🙃💗
I wonder how many rats were in those mills back then 🤔
Scientists dont have the last say of the end product it profit

Thank god modern society got away from knowing your community and having things made local. Things are so much better with communities flooded with people from other countries who don't like you and you food made on the other side of the world with plenty of chemicals.

Reading the comments I can safely say……life today STINKS compared with these times. 🫠 How do we get back? I can just pray 🙏.
so sweetful vid......
