Quote: Magpie VT11310 - Jak na to + styl
I wish l could go back to the 70s l was a child then 55 now. l miss it and think about those days everyday.
so do I, why do we think about it so much?
Great. Back in the days when bikes were bikes, women were women, men were men, winters were winters and England was England. And it has mainly crumbled away in my life time.
No he's right
Yes it has. Barry sheene had just about retired from two wheels when I first knew of him and into driving a Toyota in British touring car's / before truck racing.
He was the one that made me want to ride. So age 41. I still do. Good job. Because women ' just sint women these days lol..
Ha ha 6000 pounds you can't get a good 750 gt now for that
@@burthabard8316 £6000 today (2018) £42,000 so relatively cheap for a GP Bike, however manufactures were no doubt subsidising the cost to some extent, as the 'Road Bike Market' was the big earner. Unfortunately for Suzuki they came well unstuck as when in 1986 they launched the RG500 Gamma, it was soon banned in most Countries of the World due to emissions, they were blamed for Global Warming and consequently only a relative few were sold. However I did not think they were causing the slightest effect, and bought one in 1989 - one of the last made. Terrific Bike, that cost around £4000 then. RG500 CH (1989) Pepsi-Suzuki "Kevin Schwantz" GP Race Replica, Interestingly, the last of the street RG500s (the H model) had almost the same power output as the original works racers!
@@GrrMeister I had a Yamaha ss 50 gold 1973 for my first bike got it on the nock at a 270 pounds at 14 pounds a month then took my test on the old mans Honda c90 ? U could do that back then after passing I got a Honda 750 in gold 1975 reg for £ 680 new ended up swoping it for a bondbug the money there worth now will bye you a used rg 500 d if you can find one most are around 16000 in good nick if I new back in the day then my bank would have money in it but now I ride a Chinese 125 Honda clone that's life ha ha
What a great down to earth interview from a very humble down to earth legend that he was
She is absolutely adorable, Magpie was great as a kid in the 70's, Sheene is a legend, never see a guy like him (or Hunt etc) again.
Mate if you Google sheene and hunt picture there's a great photo of the 2 of them drinking beer on a boat-::👍 70s gold
@@vaughanwarburton9623 Seen it mate, that's a great pic, the 70's were great times, none of this PC snowflake crap, there was a Vauxhall racer in the 70's called Gerry Marshall, larger than life bloke, great guy, huge personality, he was always pictured at the end of a race with a pint in one hand, a huge cigar in the other surrounded by gorgeous girls.
@@Markycarandbikestuff Certainly, Gerry Marshall's biography entitled "Only here for the beer" say's it all.
'Rush' the film about James Hunt, is great, Barry was a good mate of his, the times they must have
had must've been brilliant.
She's 73 now, how time flies
Jenny Hanley an absolute babe. Sheeny was a legend, did so much for the sport.
Jenny Hanley was a stunner.
She was utterly gorgeous. The only thing that disappointed me about her film career was that, unlike a lot of dstinguished young actresses of her generation, Helen Mirren, Jenny Agutter, Glenda Jackson, etc. Jenny never took on any roles that saw her naked in front of a film camera😞😞😞
Jenny Hanley and Sally James , both absolutely adorable to me as a young boy back in the day.
Can’t argue with that statement!
Same
Old lady's now lol 😂
Great days.bionic Barry Sheen. Legend. Sally James, nipples like saucepan lids. Jenny I'm sure appeared in hammer films in 60s.
@@kevindarkstar still lovely tho I bet
Barry Sheene and James Hunt. Both were characters.
John Collins and good friends aswell I believe
She's 73 now, goes to show how little time we have to do what we really want to do, and we've been robbed a year of that already.
Jesus! That bike is so beautiful, that man is so cool and that woman is so polite.
I love this interview, makes me feel relaxed.
Im sure thats cutting edge technology that the YPVS was made from
I had this YPVS Paint job in 85.....

Jenny "I'm freezing cold, can we go for a walk" Barry (in my head) You fancy a quickie, sure!
bet that motorhome was a rocking later!!
Definitely.
They say Never meet your heroes. Well I did, at Donnington Park, many years ago. I was in awe meeting Barry Sheene and getting his autograph, which I still have to this day. That memory remains with me even now, as I cruise through my 50s. What a day that was.
She really is completely gorgeous! I also like how modest the (supremely talented) young Barry was !
Yes I noticed that ,even though he was a good old Essex boy,he was polite and modest,just really good d fashioned British values,not seen much theses days im afraid
The days when people spoke correctly and naturally really nice video ,,,
everything about this is lovely
Much nicer pace and style of tv back then, it's all too hyped and false these days. Was a big Barry Sheen fan and after hearing him tell Jenny to stick her bottom back as far as it will go, an even bigger fan!
Plus we don't have some fcuking dance track running under every clip
He is a very attractive man. The way he spoke to ladies is very charming. No wonder most of the girls he met felt in love with him. What a great personality and character he is. Very sad we couldn't see a guy like this anymore in motogp world.
Barry moved to Australia and carved out a marvelous career as a TV commentator before his untimely death. We know he was English, but he will always be "Our Barry", we loved him.
How did he die
@@Roscoe.P.Coldchain Sadly Bazza was addicted to cigarettes, and cancer took him. In some older photos you will see that he drilled a hole through the chinpiece of his Bell helmet, so he could smoke with it on...
Rare footage of Barry Sheene not smoking for a whole four and a half minutes...
Hahahahahahaha
Edited....lol
Jenny Handley was my teenage fantasy for a LONG time. Wonderful woman and a great lady.
Those were those days my friend I thought they'd never end x
Mary Hopkin. I used to pass her house every morning on my way to school.
We would win and never lose!
This bike design looks bad ass even in 2021 ,old bike and car's has simplicity and carector.
Jenny Hanley ! She was adorable! I remember watching Magpie when I was 12. Barry comes across well. What a legend.
This is the most British thing I have ever seen and I am British, should show this to other countries to set the stereotype
Jenny Hanley was an absolute 'vivid imagination' subject for an impressionable young lad.
A beautiful, well spoken lady...
Jenny Hanley (Magpie and Taste the Blood of Dracula) was one of my first crushes as a teen.Valerie Leon from the Hai Karate adverts was another, as was Diana Rigg from the Avengers and Caroline Munro from the Hammer horror films and lastly Shirley Eaton from various films including Doctor at Sea and Goldfinger. Those were the days
Was Candy Davis around then? she was in my top 3 most of the time.
Wow. She is absolutely charming. What a pleasant person she must have been to be around. They don't seem to make many of them like that anymore?
The classic 'English rose".
@@lorenzomagazzeni5425 indeed.
Just remembered why I used to watch magpie and it wasn't mick Robertson and the other bloke.... 😋
excellent blast from the past when superstars were cool people as well
“Lean forward and push your bottom baack as far as it will go.” With Barry Sheene. You just couldn’t make it up!
😁😁😂😂😂 dead right too...
I'm sure it wasn't the first time he'd ever said that to some honey.
Barries motto " If the trailers a rockin' don't come a knockin' "
you forgot, " get your bunny rabbit out of the way"......lol
Tooooo funny you beat me to it by 2 year Lmao!
Good interview, very nostalgic atmosphere and beautiful snowy weather. Barry was really a relaxed easy going guy, great to hear and see him again even though he is gone. Brings back great memories of watching him race in the transatlantic trophy series, thank you Thames Tv........:-)
Magic stuff! Barry is the quintessential English gentleman that was later mixed with an Australian influence that was a mix that will not be repeated.
Barry sheene still my all time hero
Who didn't want to be Barry sheene
Rip you were absolute legend
Now that's an interview before sensitivity training
Barry Sheene a Legend in the motorcycle world a sad sad loss when he left us, Jenny is 73 now and still looking good.
That’s a nice thing to read .
What a Legend he was! As a child he was my hero. And to think when he rode for Suzuki GB he actually lived in Charlwood, in a gorgeous listed manor house, and the local pub I now cycle past on training, he would be found in, having a few beers with the locals. He lives on for me!
I don’t recall Mr Sheen taking a knee before a race!
Wonderful to be taken back to a better time. Thanks for the upload.
What on Earrrth is that knee comment doing Here?!!! 🤦🏻♂️🤣
My first hero on two wheels, so humble and honest but quick as hell on the track.
Yeah, you can just imagine it nowadays..
"So, with that many bikes on the grid, you must be really destroying the planet. And l hope that's not real leather"
Christopher ... well observed ! Sad times...
Or real fur!
This was so full of double entendres 😂
Sneaked into the paddock at Olivers Mount Scarborough in the mid 70s i was a teenager,we met Barry and Steph his beauty of a girlfriend he talked to us for a while lovely couple had time for everyone.
Bazza using his charm on Jenny Hanley.... she was gorgeous
Such a hell of a man...RIP Barry Sheene
Brave beyond reason,I think even when he had cancer,refused chemo
You know Barry had another ride before she drove home.
They used to say that Barry Sheene had so much metal in him that he was faster when going magnetic north. I remember watching Magpie in about 1969-70 and Elephant's Eggs in a Rhubarb Tree about 1970-71.
Damn, so much nostalgia I am choking up.
I did a 12 hour endurance race at Mallory back in the day. I don't live in England any more, so perhaps it is the combination of time having passed combined with being homesick, but I swear I can feel that cold air on my face!
🏆⚒️🇬🇧
I met Barry in the cockpit of a BA Jumbo jet coming into land to Heathrow many years ago, lovely guy most unassuming. I hasn’t to add neither of us was flying the plane. It was those innocent days when passengers where allowed to do such things.
If this segment aired today both their careers would be over, hers for being too feminine for the feminists and Barry's for the gentle flirtation, which today would be "sexual harassment". FTW.
We always have our motorbikes, who needs them? LOL
So
Not to mention the scores of complaints about all that fur she is wearing, infact she wouldn't have been allowed to wear it in the first place.
@@robertlund5694 Robbie, it's been 9 months, you should be due and deliver the rest of the sentence by now. I'm sure it will be something rare and deep, like a diarrhoea.
"Just slide that back a little bit and put your hands on there" legend
“Getting off is as difficult as getting on”
Nothing has changed there.
Yes, I was a fan of Barry Sheene back in the 1970s. One other thing that I must say, what a pretty and attractive lady Jenny Hadley is. Beautiful !!
@@speedbirdconcordeBOAB - Sorry, my typo !!. But either way, she was then and is now a very beautiful lady.
Thank you for this!
Barry - " it will do around 190 mph" her response " ooow"
"They're not designed for ladies." Brilliant.
@derranged28
Bazza "their not designed for ladies
........ but this is"
Jenny "Lucky I'm not always a lady "
God I'm old but Jenny was hot 👍👍👍👍👍
"In this kind of weather you can't really ride anything else". As a kid, missed that line. Hilarious! There are many more if you listen carefully.
I love these little gems of history
Barry..riding a hairy machine for Britain. Good lad.
Lovely bonnet. My Mum and Sisters wore those, and Barry looks marvelous with his long back and sides. The Suzi sounded crispy.
Nurse asked ‘are you allergic to anything ‘ Barry replied “ Cancer apparently “
Jenny is exactly as gorgeous as I remember her
Proper winter ..2 stroke bike...good looking bird...my teenage years...
Great programme I was lucky enough to appear on it meeting Graham Hill in the “ Tell Me” section. But can’t find the clip on You Tube . Barry Sheene another of my hero’s fond memories of watching him through Dingle Dale at Brands in the Transatlantic series .
If Barry had his way she would have seen more than his hairy 750🤣🤣babe magnet in his younger days. Was a big fan of mr sheene👍🏻r.i.p Barry ✌🏻
i closed my eyes and swore I was listening to a Benny Hill skit.
I WAS AT MALLORY PARK TRANSATLANTIC IN 1975 ON MY BSA BANTAM 175,IT SNOWED THEN,BLOODY COLD RIDE HOME!!!.
Life was so much better back then sheen was my hero ...
The legend that is Barry sheene! Halcyon days from the past.
2021 I've just seen this , loved it !
I was 3 years old R.I.P Barry Sheene. 7
Barry Sheen what a dude. 👍👍
One of the many to handle Barry's helmet...
BARRY SHEENE è stato un grande campione! Eppoi.... aveva anche una bellissima moglie!
Two of my favourite people from the 70,s.I wouldn't be surprised if Barry tried "pulling" jenny after this interview.😂
Would've been rude, if he hadn't .........
Sheene is a legend,RIP Barry Sheene
Judging the relaxed on screen interplay, they had already sealed the knot before the cameras rolled
Why did Barry wear underpants? ...
To keep his ankles warm.
Barry got her in the back of the winnebago after that was filmed and rode her like his RG 750 👍👍🤣
He comes across as a real genuine guy, wish I could have met him once.
I watched him race at Cadwell Park, when he walked past me about 10 yards away on his way to the pits I called out to him for a photo. He stopped and waited for me to take the photo, which I thanked him for. I still have the photo today. I used to love following the Transatlantic Trophy in the 70s.
He had abundance of charisma
Why do I love this so much ?
"Well in this kind of weather you cant't really ride anything else." Really Barry?
It was scripted....
Getting off is about as difficult as getting on...Help her out Bazz!!
she probly left a snail trail
It's nice to hear well spoken people. Can you imagine this interview today, we'd be treated to an interviewer with a God awful fruits of diversity voice: "whoah bruv dis bike is rough, man av no chance to catch you innit"
Things were better then. Kill me.
Your so right there,will never be the same again.
Love the dated format. So flirtatious, but you cant blame them, Barry was a sexy man and she was very cute.
Il mio pilota preferito sei sempre vivo nel mio cuore quando si correva con tutto quello che si aveva si vinceva con grande fatica e solidarietà con il tuo meccanico
I have to point out that it's Jenny Hanley (not Hadley), daughter of the actor, the late Jimmy Hanley.
Barry... always a star
What a gorgeous bike, wish you could buy it for that money now! 😳
I bet he rode for Britain when the cameras stopped rolling...
Brilliant!
Barry looks bloody freezing. What an iconic machine that RG is.
Oddly, I think this is the TR triple, not his GP bike.
Just watched her Dad in the film The Black Rider, great motorcycle film from the 50s.
Man these guys had a great time back then I'm thinking..with all the hairy mits..
Great vid.... !
I remember they used to talk like that back then...
I remember watching that show as a kid in England an$ was disappointed it was snowing .
jenny hanley and dennis waterman in a early 70s horror movie ,the scars of dracula ...
REAL people.
I'll give you back you're helmet.....classic.
Jennifer Hanley was hot.
I have no idea why I watched this but she is cute
Jenny looked lovely sat on that bike, would have made a great poster for my teenage selfs’s bedroom wall!
Hopefully posed in far warmer weather, wearing little or nothing 😉😉😉😉
Call me old fashioned but " they dont do interviews like this no more" and I dont get all watery eyed either
