Are you sure 1977 is the correct year, as I don’t think HSTs arrived until 1980.

Could this have been 1976? The Scillonian II - seen at 08:20 - was replaced by Scillonian III in May 1977

@robertmarsh3588 Жыл бұрын

Can't have been 1976, the HST (High Speed Train) at the start wasn't running regular passenger services till 1977.

Did the helicopter go the the Scilly isles ?

@roumsiki Жыл бұрын

Yes, two routes. PZ to St Mary's and PZ to Tresco. Service finished in 2012. At the time it was the world's oldest regular scheduled commercial helicopter service.

Wonderful. We’ve walked from Penzance to Mousehole along the front many times, then up to Paul & back past the church. The roads were much quieter, fewer foreign cars on the road too, and the place has such a lovely laid back feel to it. Can we have those days back please?

Cracking stuff ! I was 14 when all that was filmed and we lived in Adelaide Street ! I went away for 22 years and came back to live in 2003. Penzance will always be home but it looked a town much more at ease with itself in 1977. 1977 was in fact a a rubbish year as far as summer weather was concerned ( certainly compared to the scorcher of 1976,) but it still looked a hell of a lot warmer than this summer has been !!!! 1977.. when buses are run by Western National.... and they were very green !!!!
