Being 30 years old I remember this from the great days. I used to watch this all the time - well when Carol was in it. When she left it got depressing, and though I carried on watching it, I still miss it.
I imagine that the void left by shows like this and Blue Peter with small practical projects with household items has been filled with the 'life hack' youtube channels like Troom Troom and so on
Kids TV is shocking lame boring today. You have shock it nothing good as was like back in the 80s and 90s which those awesome times be kid plus TV golden too
I'm really thankful I grew up with programs like this on TV. Man I miss these times. The nature of media has really changed these days. Glad I got to be a kid of the 20th century
I used to watch this after school, but I forgot what they did before the internet was mainstream. I don't think I even understood how to make a VHS recording back then anyway.
You knew that “How 2” was made by the same people as “Fun House” and “Finders Keepers” when the Scottish Television logo showed up at the end of the programme!
This was a great programme when I was a kid! I see Australia had the 'Curiosity Show' which has pretty much all been uploaded to CZcams. The producers should do the same for this.
Thank you so much for uploading this episode of How 2 to CZcams this is a great programme and this was originally broadcast on Monday 4th September 1995 which was the exact same day and week when they launched brand-new programmes for the autumn season which continued until December.
Used to watch this after school. Anyone remember the cartoon The Dreamstone? Used to love watching that too, brilliant soundtrack at the end credits as well.
it was around, mainly business and defo within government depts. Problems at this stage was that individuals with email may only know 1 or 2 people to email. Its like webpages, the days when you spotted one advertised on a van or flyer etc you'd note it down and visit it regardless of what the content! Email was the first thing private users could use, whilst the web itself was still just rolling out into all authority depts).The web was around pre 95 with its initial use being military.
There's one episode where they talk about left and right handed products. Any one know which episode that is? My husband doesn't believe me that left handed scissors exists and is giving my leftie daughter a hard time about it.
Sweat like a pig?! Pigs don't sweat!! Why? They don't have sweat glands!! They cover themselves with mud to cool off!! Just to let you know!! But I think he means, he sweats a lot!!
Pigs absolutely do have sweat glands, just not many for their size! (In comparison to us). As with 5:16 in this vid, the information is technically incorrect! But live and learn!
11:09-13:30 Very interesting - one would certainly know whose are whose children, but how would anyone know who was married to who, since husband and wife don't have the same 'last name'?
I knew i was being lied to when i saw this as a kid! Paused the video at the russian dolls and measured my screen. The russian dolls do get bigger going left to right! The camera angle must have been way off to left. I feel vindicated for confused 7 year old me.
The fact Fred was in the new HOW as well, shows how long he's been in the cast
He's 80 now. I just checked. So he's about 52 or 53 here. They're all awesome. I loved this programme ☺
from the original HOW show then he did the 90s remake how 2 here and then added segments for the latest version of the show.
Loved to watch this show years ago. It was broadcasted on Discovery Kids here in Argentina...
Me encantaba "como y porque", de la época que Discovery kids transmitía buenos programas. Un saludo
On channel 3 (itv) in UK back in the 90's
Being 30 years old I remember this from the great days. I used to watch this all the time - well when Carol was in it. When she left it got depressing, and though I carried on watching it, I still miss it.
I'm 30 too and I remember watching it when I was 8 :)
Also 30 lol. I was so fascinated by this lol.
I'm 30 and loved watching... in my opinion, kids programs were better in the 90s and very early 2000s
I always wanted to ride Fred Dinenage like Seabiscuit when I watched it in the 90's. Even though I was like 6 or 7.
You're nearly 40 now 😵
Kids NEED these sorts of programs. Is there anything like it on today (in the UK)?
I used to love this :)
only on youtube
@The Three Group haha they will probably mess it up with some PC sh#t
I watched this show too.
I imagine that the void left by shows like this and Blue Peter with small practical projects with household items has been filled with the 'life hack' youtube channels like Troom Troom and so on
Kids TV is shocking lame boring today. You have shock it nothing good as was like back in the 80s and 90s which those awesome times be kid plus TV golden too
It's a shame there's not many edutainment shows around for kids now.
This certain was a fun one too.
Aww I loved this program I miss being a kid!
Learnt more from these shows than from school
I'm really thankful I grew up with programs like this on TV. Man I miss these times. The nature of media has really changed these days. Glad I got to be a kid of the 20th century
Brilliant programme shame they don't have these shows anymore
tell me about it they should Bring this back to the Kids can Fucking Learn Something
they have miley cirus don't they?
@@gewizz2 hahahaha that cracked me up lol
They doooo
Kids simply do not have educational shows like this anymore. Men like Johnny Ball and Fred genuinely loved entertaining kids and kids loved them.
clearspira Icagree as far as the people you mentioned are concerned.. But so did Jimmy Savile, & look what happened there
@@liamwhitcombe1237 You didnt need to bring that fools name up in fairness.
We’ve got HOW today with Fred aswell it’s really good
Because corporations want them dumn
The "data blast" at 3:48 incredible. So 90s it's amazing.
I used to watch this after school, but I forgot what they did before the internet was mainstream. I don't think I even understood how to make a VHS recording back then anyway.
Bad Influence did this too
Wow that Icelandic names one brought back so many memories! Funny the things you recall from 25 yrs ago!!
This show was available in the States via Encore Family/Kids. I remember watching 15 minute episodes of this followed by Art Attack.
You knew that “How 2” was made by the same people as “Fun House” and “Finders Keepers” when the Scottish Television logo showed up at the end of the programme!
One of my favourite shows back in the day. Will try the 4 quarters cake, looks delicious.
Great show, I remember this episode, can't believe it's been 22 yrs
As kids, we watched shows like this and became the generation of creators (software, hardware, all sorts).
Kids nowadays are all just users.
Fred Dinenage, Johnny Ball, Neil Buchanan... come back, guys - we need you :(.
Neil Buchanan died
@@bernierose719 Well that's incorrect.
This was a great programme when I was a kid! I see Australia had the 'Curiosity Show' which has pretty much all been uploaded to CZcams. The producers should do the same for this.
Born in the 80s and I still love this show wow
I loved this show. Teaches abstraction and thought
Thank you so much for uploading this episode of How 2 to CZcams this is a great programme and this was originally broadcast on Monday 4th September 1995 which was the exact same day and week when they launched brand-new programmes for the autumn season which continued until December.
Friday afternoons in primary school were lit when they'd roll out the big telly on a stand and chuck this on 🔥 🔥
Thank you SO MUCH for uploading this!! I haven’t seen this in so long! Can you please try and find/upload more? Smile
I remember this from the seventies with a pipe smoking old gent can’t remember his name great show bring it back please
Jack Hargreaves
Used to watch this after school. Anyone remember the cartoon The Dreamstone? Used to love watching that too, brilliant soundtrack at the end credits as well.
I watched this as a kid in Mexico. (Translated to Spanish of course). Great show.
That's how for now lol. Maaan, am on a 90s trip lol. Excellent programmes!
I remember watching this back then!
Fred Dinenage must be about 120 years old now, surely?
97channel 75
And presenting the news in the south east of England
Today he’s 86
RIP Fred. you were beautiful 😥
Carol, you looked normal back then 🧐
He's not dead
@@cloudstrife1983 brilliant!! long live Fred
He's not dead
Now THIS is what I watched when I was a kid. No wonder I turned out odd.
Sharp mind rip apart illusions.
this show often started when countdown was halfway through on the other side - so Vorders was on 2 channels both at the same time!
Wow , nice bit of nostalgia.
I now know how 2 make a cake with those four ingredients.
They need to bring shows like this back!!
I loved this . Takes me back to a simpler time
I love this programme
Those two dogs are adorable and very well behaved.
The end of this is like that bit in Silent Hill Downpour.
Blast from the past! Wow!
I was born in 1984 so this was MY How
When I was younger I watched this more than funhouse and finders keepers
I never believed in soul mates until now lol
Wish they could bring this back for one more time
loved this show!!!
never crack eggs on rim of a bowl or pan unless you like eaating shells. Man I miss the 90s
Freaking loved this show
Great video
😊 Well done for Icelandic names. Although Bjork's name is more like "Byerk".
I went on holiday there before it was fashionable. 🇮🇸
So nice see this
Wow amazing
I loved this as a kid. In hindsight that record and playback our video idea is rubbish. Shows how fast technology changes!
I'm defo going to make that cake!!
Y'know, this was kind of like a QI for kids.
They had email in 1995??? Astonishing!
Yeah email has been around since the 70s.
It was originally called 'How' in the 60s
Good old days
This show is coming back!
How 3?
this show was like a insight into the future, i.e everyone googles how-to.
it was around, mainly business and defo within government depts. Problems at this stage was that individuals with email may only know 1 or 2 people to email. Its like webpages, the days when you spotted one advertised on a van or flyer etc you'd note it down and visit it regardless of what the content! Email was the first thing private users could use, whilst the web itself was still just rolling out into all authority depts).The web was around pre 95 with its initial use being military.
Wonder if someone will even upload the entire series of this? Even here in Canada this aired on TVO Channel Kids block.
My childhood.
11:09: And 17 years later, the same question will turn up on QI.
Haha I did not know that about Iceland lol. Why is it so weird and extra lol
06:10 06:11
This is one of my favourite hows
It's nice when u take a break from the 2013 logo!
Also some one need to do the how 2 short theme
And that's how for now
***** Hahahahahahaha!!!
Yule and Mary: HOW!
Ranko: Oh HELL NO!
29p for a bag of flour? Bargain.
Yeah, prices were cheaper back then....
Yule Cristobal Yeah, and we had to walk seven miles to school...
Alan Hancock OUCH! Thank god my mom always drive me to school...
@@alanthe2 I don't think that's the 90's fault
Kwik save mate lmfao
All very well pausing a video tape clip, but you'd need zebedee to read the thing with it jumping up and down. 😂 #vhsshake
There's one episode where they talk about left and right handed products. Any one know which episode that is? My husband doesn't believe me that left handed scissors exists and is giving my leftie daughter a hard time about it.
This had a email address !
You got any epsiodes of citv tv show Mike and Angelo
Paper shoes Fantastic!
Carol: 1. 2....
She just can't help herself.
...people had email in 1995?
In 1996 someone was livestreaming 24/7; look it up: JenniCam :)
Rip Fred!

Life hack show before hack my life.
Fuck its 3 minutes in and I've learnt 2 knew things already.
Sweat like a pig?! Pigs don't sweat!! Why? They don't have sweat glands!! They cover themselves with mud to cool off!! Just to let you know!! But I think he means, he sweats a lot!!
Pigs absolutely do have sweat glands, just not many for their size! (In comparison to us). As with 5:16 in this vid, the information is technically incorrect! But live and learn!
paper shoes wouldn't be very good if you were wearing them out and it started to rain
How to do things no one would every want to do
Its comming back
✋ How!!!.....
If I was Icelandic my name would be Jamie Terrenceson
Should have done how 2 do that comb over Fred ffs.
not a patch on the original theme.
we will all be making papershoes soon after the fuel companies drain us dry
Is it recorded from Southampton or from Cowcaddens?
Being from 1995 this would have been up in Scotland, as they only recorded in Southampton and Maidstone for the first 4 series.
11:09-13:30 Very interesting - one would certainly know whose are whose children, but how would anyone know who was married to who, since husband and wife don't have the same 'last name'?
How do you do what you do to me I wish I knew .
I do it to you
I still remember the theme song
Before they dumbed us down
Valentino Rossi before he raced bikes.
175 degrees C is 347 degrees F
Carol looks hot. Classy lady.

Quatre Quart cake.
