This is priceless, home loss payments due to the troubles PSA! You couldn’t make it up!!!!
Tough times...great artifact.
I love the intense Ulster accents being employed here (!)
The late David Gamble on announcing duty
Proper Ulster accent!
The psa at the start is chilling when you understand its context. ..an important historic record thanks for preserving it
I'm fascinated.... can you tell me more?
@@duncanpriestley964 protestants destroyed Catholic homes when the catholics won equal rights in a nutshell think it was 68 or 69?
@@jimmyviaductophilelawley5587 Wow. The formality of that PSA really is chilling. Thanks for the response.
@@duncanpriestley964 No problem....it's what kicked off the last round of the "troubles" (now there's a euphemism fo you!) The catholics had finally had enough! Bestwishes and take care
It reminds me of the tone of those ‘Protect and Survive’ films
What an evocation of the early to mid 1970s this is, especially of those troubled times in the province. As for what else I'd love to say regarding this please take a look at my remarks over at the 'Wednesday 12th December 1973 - World At War - Adverts - Beryl's Lot - News At Ten - Rare Recording' video on this channel.
Tells you everything you need to know.
This is unbelievable. This was really from BBC1 Northern Ireland in the early-1970's? Although the globe is not seen, and the BBC logo is the squared italic one from the late 1960s, not the rounded italic BBC logo from 1971 to 1989. Still, it's amazing.
I'd always assumed the ident seen here was the first NI colour ident (September 1970) replacing the monochrome hand logo, but this video suggests it replaced the more familiar 'ni' letters which they then returned to when the regional yellow on blue globes came in circa 1976. All very confusing.
I believe that this was a transition period just before the spinning NI logo and a simple caption is being used replacing clock and moving ident, the same happened in '84 when for a few weeks a static caption was used in place of the globe and clock before the digital clock and improved globe which due to the introduction of the cow globe lasted only about 3 months
The plot thickens - on the BBC Rewind website there's evidence of another early colour BBC NI ident that was in use in 1971. It's the same as the b/w red hand ident from 1968 but with the hand in red (naturally) and a green background. I've used a screen grab of it as my thumbnail. The ident is shown on film, but I assume it would originally have been a caption on video?
And instead of the BBC1 logo being shown. It was BBC TV.
@@CarltonCZcams All that could make sense, somehow.
I would have been just three and Play School age, too young to understand or remember that period!
That button press to change over at 04:05
Nice!
That is an interesting closedown presentation. No clocks, no globe, just the logo.
PSI for "home evacuation" and God save the Queen at the end .. when David said "Good Night" at the end his tone was not that reassuring! ...all very chilling and confusing for certain communities back in the day. A fascinating piece of footage - NI was a scary place for some back then .. saying that it never stopped Rory Gallagher from playing the Ulster Hall!
Quite wonderful! And a very non-standard rendering of 'BBC 1' on that They Make Music slide. Did NI not have a clock at their disposal at this time? And can anybody identify the gloriously R.P. voice on the Home Payments psa?
Non standard rendering of BBC1/2 in Northern Ireland continue to the late 80's, any old thing would do at times
I think it is a videorecording on a Philips N1500 videomachine?
Timecheck 12:09AM
no clock?
@3:11 - What does a wind "moderate to fresh" mean? Signed, Stumped in the States.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beaufort_scale
fresh means cool, and moderate means not too strong
The 1972 BBC version of GSTQ in which BBC R4 use now in 2022 was already in its second year through the BBC regions in the winter of discontent of 1973.
What was the video recorder that recorded this?
This recording must be made by a Philips N1500. U-Matic was more expensive and all other systems weren't around at that time
What? No globe? No clock?
At that time, the television industry in UK strike news programs broadcast in recorded form and when finished there is no clock or graphic
@@NorikoHarukoThis was live. BBC Northern Ireland just didn’t have a clock or globe at that point in time.
Executive Office? You may as well contact the water pump at the end of the street.....A through embarrassment. Yet even in 2023, the HE brings us all to a certain Closedown, with the National Anthem....Toigs in apoplexy....😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
