EastEnders - Monty Python parrot sketch spoof - Year 200X?
Back when I used to watch BBC TV's Eastenders and when I still had a 4:3 TV with a couple of VHS recorders below it, in one episode in the 2000's (prior to 2008) [anyone tell me which year please] the script writers inserted a parody of the parrot sketch from #Montypython that formed part of a story-line about Dot Cotton's (and Jim Branning's) dead budgie. Never recording it at the time, I must have later recorded the omnibus broadcast and later joined the two VHS recorders together to copy / join up (looks second gen quality) the parts of the story-line. Genuis for the writers to have done this and just dropped it into the episode. Recently found when going through my VHS tape collection and try as I have, can't see this uploaded anywhere. Enjoy!

Holiday Air '85 - Mid-air refuelling (BBC)
Переглядів 2807 років тому
Clip from Holiday Air '85 featuring mid-air refuelling. Off air recording made onto Philips Video 2000 format tape, hence extremely dodgy playback (compared to VHS) when copied to DVD after 25 years (in 2010, and now finally uploaded in 2017) - the recorder still played back, even if some tapes have deteriorated a bit.

This is amazing. I remember this
How are they doing that its creepy😮😮😮😮
Brilliant. Takes me back to that very day, when I was watching with Service families on the television. Seems like yesterday.
12:16 ITV digital update
I watched this liveas a child, and even then thought all the celebrations were far too early before she was fully secured
We threw away perfectly good soldiers to keep rule over a rock on the other side of the world
Who else still has their free knitted monkey? 🙉
“call off the rail strike… or we’ll call an air strike” This anti-labor message from those themselves who toil is very disheartening
May 31st 1986. Was on Plymouth Hoe when it happened. I was 11 years old, remember it like it was yesterday.
Wait a minute Scott wasn't black 😡
nor were any of the cast of Thunderbirds , which would have meant Lenny Henry couldn't have been cast in this Comic Relief spoof. A silly comment from you!
No diversity at all? Great isn’t it? 😂🇬🇧
This was 2002. The episode where he went up the vacuum was 11th July 2002. Also, don't change my mind. This is funnier than most sitcoms today.
Hard to believe the platform where this happened has now closed
20th Century technology now is historic too 42 years later.
Take pride Britain. Take pride. Don’t let anyone knock the country about. Historically, the Greatest nation in the world.
Proud of you all my brother was on there
When we were allowed to be proud of Britain. Then along came Tony Blair😡😡
When the Argentinians struck, the Empire struck back. The Falklands were liberated from the Argies, Galtieri was shown where to walk, and the Falklanders rejoiced. Because it is British men and women who are the true natives to those islands.
i learnt just now in 2024 that in 2004 from watching an old ad about the new service topuptv the old ondigital itvdigi box was able to get there topuptv channels by using a new viewing card and simply calling them up and adding it into the box. something bbc could use via adding a card or two to ur payers online account so that tv from 2015 or 2013 could still get LIVE bbc tv channels . it could be an addon for this online stuff but bbc think they toooo good to give us all easy access to there channels. rip ondigital and the topuptv2004 almost 20yrs since we had no other UK card tv service on freetoairtv bbc could be next to add a card back
When this country had a set of balls.
Remember watching this in school.age 12.
In my old school I got to go and see it

I saw a passage about mary rose in a IELTS book , that's why I'm here to see how mary rose was look like.😊
Without a shadow of doubt this was the Canberra's finest hour
Yes, such a travesty that owners refused to sell her to many that wanted to hold on to her but instead insisted she was sold for scrap, very sad to see her being ripped apart off the beach in Pakistan.
4:25 This is epic
That has been down there for 400 years
Britain has given the world so much basically all modernity and language science etc. you should be proud.
The ominousness of their information screen saying "It is business as usual" and then just being dead is rather harrowing,.
this is how Freeview was born by I T V Digital Set the basic infrastructure for Freeview to be successful in the end
They fought for freedom very bravely while the rest of the world was certain they'd die by the thousand. Great men and if only the country had been there for them in the same way they had been for it.

What is the tune in 11:19 ?
When Britain was british !
17:00 which song is this ?
life on a ocean wave
ITV Digital was way ahead of it's time Now ITV has a digital channel along with a mobile app
It was rubbish, the signal was poor, the best thing getting a refund from them a year before it collapsed. NTL & Telewest were probably relieved when it collapsed
I remember this day very well and when the cradle broke I nearly had a fit . I now live here in Queensland Australia since 1989. i did come back to visit my family living in Fareham Hampshire. my sister and I finally came to see it but sadly still being sprayed etc but it was truly amazing
Bro imagine in an alternative universe where in 1990 the titanic was raised
It would be crazy cool to see it
Fortunately, the monkey wasn't entirely dead following this catastrophe. I remember seeing the duo representing the PG Tips tea brand on adverts following ITV Digital's fall. A not-as-significant role as before, but still a charming one regardless.
While an old ship. She did a fantastic job. Couldnt have done it without her.
Fucking Argies!!
Does anyone know the name of the last march? Thanks to all these boys.
Woman in crowd "My son Jonathan, JJ in the Galley" Reporter "What does he do on board?"!!
My daughter, who was still 9 years from being born, is taking us to see the exhibition next week.I remember watching the live coverage and gasping when the cables snapped.Still gives me goosebumps when I watch this.400 years on the seabed!
