I'd go back to the 80s in a hearbeat. Was 14 in 1982.

I would have been 3 when this was on, but I do watch similar videos from the late 80s and the 90s, it's weird how comforting it is. Life was a slower pace back then, the world now is off its rocker.

1982, the year I left school, miss those days, simpler times and the best days of my life.

This is incredibly comforting. Born in 76, this reminds me of a simpler times and gives a true feeling of warmth in my soul. I think people of my age need to watch this from time to time, to bring them back to simpler times. Thanks for making this! ❤

In 1982, when I was 18, my poor grandmother died after a long time with dementia. My brother and I nursed her to the end, while my mother disappeared with her new boyfriend. When she died my brother and I found out that she left a fortune to the both of us, including property. We were very careful with the money. I'm 59 now and now I have to care of my mother, who at 87, has also developed dementia. That's my memory of 1982.

"Good night to you and God bless"

Those really were better days

Im on the sofa under a cosy Duvet, the rain pelting down at my window, a himalayan Rock lamp glowing a warm orange and another 1980's video to take me back in time when i was a teenager 😊

[antenant]

Incredible how these can recreate the feelings of childhood.

[MollyLolly]

It's amazing how many people take comfort in these videos...when I feel not my best or things in the world feel too much this kind of thing feels really comforting. And I KNEW there was a different type of special K which wasn't flakes, I seem to be the only person who remembers it when I was about 5 in my grandma's cupboard! Thank you for posting.

That Wrangler ad is well advanced for its time.

1982 : if you can pinch more than an inch you may need to watch your weight
2023 : if you are fat and can grab a foot of flab celebrate your body positivity while you can, youll be on a slab soon

[igolfjtweetler]

I turned 15 that year. Was pretty hard times in a single parent family but I'd go back in an instant with some of what I know now.

[gofres]

Notice how much slimmer people were back then. I don't remember anyone being fat when I was a kid in the 80s. I vividly remember the first McD popping up on our nearest city when I was around 10. It's been a slow crawl towards am obese society since then.

[samwallace]

I was 19 back then, ah the memories 😊. No social media or Internet, I'd go back there tomorrow if I could.

[garrdavies]

This was the year I was born and this is what I assumed the world would be like when I grew up. Things have changed to such an incredible degree that looking back now everything from that time seems foreign, imagery, social norms, technology and in some cases the world and the countries that exist within it. It's hard to explain to it all to people who weren't there but I guess that's just how it goes with each passing generation.

I remember that Christmas Two Ronnies particularly well, as it was the first christmas I had access to a tape recorder and a TV to record the audio from. I recorded all the songs and must have listened to them 100's of times to the point where I knew them off by heart. I recognised a few of the adverts, too. Something else I used to record the audio of. The novelty of being able to do that lasted a couple years, and I still have a couple of those old cassette tapes, now.

Great time to grow up with our music geniuses, before the computers destroyed the music business, real talent were concerts were in the hundreds of thousands these days concerts are much smaller and lipsinking is the norm now and a time were people didn't spend all their time stearing into a their mobile phone, great video thanks for the memories

[SuperLisalis]

David Bowie, excellent. Such great memories thankyou, great programme.

[Simon-frts]

I was 11 and this was the best time of my life. I hate life today. There were virtually no Americanisms back then (cool, awesome etc.), girls with no tattoos or surgical implants, few fat people, no mobile phones or internet and less crime.
