C/U of a Westminster Bank cheque. Man leaves the bank and gets into a car which drives off. The crook and his cronies push a car into the centre of the road and turn it over as if there has been an accident. Man from the bank and his chauffeur are beaten up when they stop to assist. The crooks drive off.

Back when criminals were nice wholesome chaps with a splendid moustache.
And a nice suit with collar and tie - non of your sloppy fleeces or cheap track suits and trainers!
A different type of boundah these days, what.@@user-oi6ln4eq7b
Could this be Richard Vernon?
Back in the day when the relative small numbers of immigrants had back ground checks and wanted to work.
No cheery looking chaps from the Congo then welding machetes
The UK of my childhood...
The year I was born 😊
It's certainly changed in almost 60 years.
I’m an American who grew up in London in the 60’s and 70’’s. My best friend lives in Dublin and travels to London. He’s told me “don’t go back. Remember what you had.”
The folks of the 60s and 70s the old folks hated all the styles and music of the 1960s. They wish they could go back to the 1920s. So what changed
I say, what some rotters! The funniest thing of all is the thought that the police would have a notebook full of cases of bent meter readers. Now it's the actual energy companies that do the robbing!
Not a tracksuit in sight.
or Ninjas!!
Or a machete 🤔
You ain't seen my next door neighbour who lives in his tracksuit.
@@Tony11806 Is it Ali G?
@@NigelHyphenJones I have not seen him wearing a yellow tracksuit yet.
Aah ....when England was English 😮
Gone but never forgotten
It will be when people old enough to remember are gone.
Prefer it now
Pleasant accent the reporter had. Quite uncommon now.
Let me check.... still English
What’s English, Anglo Saxon?Norman? Viking? English is just French spoken badly 😂
Apparently, the woman at the end of the clip is still awaiting the police's arrival!
not in those days. the police bothered to turn up back then. although they did have more numbers and far fewer people to police!!
Love these old educational trade films
If England only looked like that again.
Gone for good, I'm afraid.
Wouldnt that be so good. Wish I had appreciated it more at the time
Thatcher ruined it
Would you really swop it?
@@hugostiglitz6914yes
Is Mr Chumley warner narrating this film ?
Moral of the first story: Don't draw out the equivalent of £10.76 million annually, all on the same day and then drive up the A1081 St Albans Road with it in the motor. Sooner or later someone is going to notice and want to chore it off you.
Loved the old footage! 😆
Crikey! I was 15 when this was released. Oh for the good old days.
That devious chap stole the clapperboard while the family were watching TV @ 5:12 What a cad!
Absolute shower!
A bit of sloppy film editing, me thinks...
love these old videos... Oh how times have changed so sad.
Why is it sad that you have more inclusivity? Are you a racist then?
The dear lady shopper waltzing along the pavement with bag wide open and purse conveniently balanced on the top! The only thing missing from this scene is a bloody big notice sticking up with "Steal Me!" written on it........
But in those days we had morals
My daughter found a £20 note on the floor of m&s in a service station a few years ago. Very excited she was😂 But I explained that we needed to hand it in,it's owner probably hadn't got very far, and how upset would we be if we lost £20. So,girl at the till called her manager down who took the note and said that they would give it to charity. At which point I started to feel cross. He wouldn't take any details of where it was found and when so that someone could get it back. When I pointed out that the usual procedure is to write down who found it, where,& when and if it isn't claimed within a reasonable time frame it's often returned to the finder he got really unpleasant, stuffed it in his pocket and slammed himself behind the staff only door. Not really the good example I was trying to set in front of a child. That's a big thing that's changed, people behaved so much better in front of children,any children. Now it's a free for all and we still blame the children for behaving badly.
Time to call Simon Templar!!
I thought the same thing very much a Saint vibe
When criminals were scumbags.....not victims.
Not asking for credentials. This reminded me about something that happened on October 30, 1987 in Seattle at Harberview Hospital ER one night. It was around 11:30 PM when a man in painters clothes carrying a ladder walked in and past the front desk. The receptionist didn’t ask any questions but let him pass. I was sitting in the waiting room where he set up the ladder, climb up, and looked to be checking the wall. He asked me if about going to a Halloween party the next evening but left shortly after I told him I had boyfriend. Years later I watching a documentary on the Green River Killer and the man in he ER that night was none other than Gary Ridgeway the Green River Killer himself. 😳
😱
Have you told any authority about that? It could prove helpful for them to know about that behavior.
@@Genevathistime thas crazy 😱😊
Do you know that gypsy's are eygptjan isn't that canny
No way, he worked as a painter at the Kenworth Factory. He wasn’t a burglar or robber and his M.O. was to assault prostitutes not just troll hospitals for his quarry. I think you are mistaking him for someone else.
The way that security has increased in public is a shocking reminder of the decline of public behaviour.
Too much processed foods and chemicals nowadays. It affects behaviour terribly!
This shows there was no decline we're just better at preventing it
Lack of proper parenting has a lot to answer for too. I see so many mothers, thinking that they are being the best mother they can be,by helicoptering around their children marvelling at everything they do, taking to task anyone or anything that thwarts the little darlings wishes. Then they become the aggressive, entitled adults that we have posters about everywhere we go. Who could have imagined that we, the English, famous for queuing and apologising when someone else knocks into us on the pavement would become such a nation of foul slovenly louts.😞
@@iseegoodandbad6758yeah agreed, I’ve been fully convinced of all the processed foods are creating more sick people.
I was five in 1965 and remember Britain as it was back then.
Fat chance that meter reader has of getting into Hyacinth Bucket's house.
Richard!!!
The Government has learnt a lot from the chap with the glasses
Yes stole my RAF pension, along with thousands more!
i got plenty of good crime tips from this.
First one, Mr Cholmondeley-Warner got a right pasting!😂😂
Where did all the English go to?
Did they lose a war?
What happened to them???
It appears that that was all a waste of time…. 🤔
That bloke hardly hit him, i recon a inside job
The year I was born. Oh people go on about the good old days, but it wasn't. Living standards were low, very low indeed, for many people. I remember a cold, damp house. We didn't have a car. Or a bicycle. Or a fridge, washing machine, vacuum cleaner, TV, tape recorder, record player, or anything electrical apart from a simple AM radio. Yet my dad was in the RAF. Times were tough.
Well I’m a bit older than you and yes, they were the “good old days”. I don’t recognise London or the country that I grew up in. The English culture has been completely obliterated and we are made to feel guilty if we mention it….. and before you start, my mother was a legal immigrant to this country, so don’t place the race card
You mentioned race😅
@@NigelHyphenJones You're a racist. So there
Just say you were poor
Never mind all that, it's 2024. An Englishman, Irishman & Scotsman walk into a bank and.... hang on, that's the doorbell. What's that officer? Hate crime?? But I was only telling a j... AAAAAARGGGHHHHH!!! WHY ARE YOU TAZERING ME?!?!? AAAARGH! Etc.
£8,000 quid back then was a small fortune.
Still is to some..🤔
Good grief, you could buy a neat little bungalow and an un-flashy family saloon to park on the driveway!
It was only £7862. Every week. That's roughly £10.76 million per year.
No wonder that bank in Barnet is a Domino's Pizza now...
My late father bought a semi-detached bungalow in a "posh" area of Lancaster in 1968 for £4,000 cash. He sold our old terraced house for £900. I've recently inherited said bungalow, now valued at £300,000.
around £150k of today's money

This looks like a prequel to the Pink Panther
When did banks start having security screens between customer and teller?
60s Crime tutorial
These films are so valuable for history. Children are tough these days that Britain was never a white nation and was always "diverse".
Tone deaf whistling can never be trusted.
Grated on my nerves the tuneless repetition
Shoot, that amateur-hour roadblock scenario is so obvious that the driver would immediately initiate a Rockford Files J-Turn and beat it.
Not much has changed really. In the noughties I used to commute into London in 1st class every day. Some of the rather ungaurded talk I used to overhear would probably have been highly useful to me had I been in the spy business or running some kind of business intelligence service related to defence procurement. Usually just small bits of information - but if I had been so minded (which I was not) I could probably have collected them and built up a quite detailed picture from the pieces. Groups of people on trains tend to forget there are others very close to them.
Really enjoyed that. Not sure why. The narration is odd and obscure.
No way would my old man have gotten up to make the tea he didnt even get up to turn telly over that was us kids job
The bad British guys always have the best 'staches!
I bet hardly anyone checks their change in supermarkets. The check-out person is shown on a screen how much change to give - and we just assume that is what we have been given!
And - ALWAYS have a quick glance down your receipt to see if anything has been accidentally scanned more than once! It DOES happen!
Some amazing moustache's being sported here.
The editing in this film is criminal
Just after 4:54 they left a shot of the clapper board in the final cut LOL. The editor probably had 4 or pints with his lunch that day.
OMG!! Someone holding a pen properly!! 3:18. Make a still shot of that & post it in every classroom in the world!!!! 🖊 😄
"I've come to read the meter" "Is that so? We've had a wood burning stove for the last 50 years, chummy!" (Boy, the housewives in these films are naive!) 8:24
The chap seems to be using an old cheque from 1963
The days when you could park your car on the road network your ,taxes paid for
👏👏👏
Wasn't hat chap in the Beatles Hard Day's Night? on the train too?
Public information film. Whatever happened to them?
They don't make them today because they would need so many different languages to reach the broader population . Anyway teenagers today know everything about everything !
They're shown on CZcams for reasons of nostalgia!
Ah, oh for the days when Ron and Reg ruled the East End, and the Richardson's looked after South London.
Wouldn't folks realize trouble was afoot when the whistling began?
1:04 This is a case for Sherlock Holmes......The cheque dated 1963 and the film was made 1965
The only crime was that moustache of his.〰️
The numberplate of the get away car was PAR 654..
Whistle while you work gets on your nerves who ever thought that was good idea
Back in the day the intel always came from inside the boss would piss someone off and they would gladly pay him back.
Ahh the British of the once Great Britain …. How fkt up is our country now ah
And now you have to fill in 20 forms to use a public toilet , if not now , it will be so in a few years , methinks .
No it's My crime
Few minor goofs in this like crew appearing
I always accompanied my boss to the bank to collect pay money every two weeks for 70 people I had the case chained to my wrist he had the keys for the case and was *licensed to carry a loaded handgun* when going to and from the bank this was ina country town as well.
It's Slartiblartfast. Seriously.
Graham Gardner from the Goodies as the thief?
Beware of dastardly miscreants and utter, utter cads.....
The sort of chap who always voted Conservative. The Party that preferred Ted Heath to Enoch Powell.
OpSec, 60s style..
this is a rather odd one from Pathe isnt it? One can interpret this in a number of ways couldnt you?
I wonder what that family are watching on the telly? It must be something earnest and miserable. A party political broadcast, at a wild guess......
Absolute shower!

I’ll be honest there was a point in time,he’d of had a face full of spray paint and a pinched motor to split in,I mourn our isles but I do feel like a hypocrite because crime doesn’t have a colour or a religion it just is ,like breathing,some want what you have but don’t want none of the getting it in the first place part,quite amazing how facial hair has went downhill 📈
Oh please do not take us back to those sorts of times , I know we love the idyllic and simple life more than we have now, or perhaps someone prefers there to only be white people in their neighbourhood, whatever it is you definitely don't want the busybody era back again, that was utterly awful..
Scams 1960’s style
You could be the fake royals
Ahhh, another Pathe video, another time I remember how much I hate Blairs political class.
Love the comments. Anti racists and woke lefties seriously lack in the humour department.
I have an surefire way to make us 8 grand. All we need to do is total a 10 grand motor.
Obviously inflation but it made me giggle
i wish england wasnt full of pack keys now
Same, but what can we do?
