Ive never seen any of the originals until 2 months ago this part no one will know or be remotely intrested in. its so good to see British rail BR Class 43 HSTs in original IC 125 livery even though the executive livery was painted in 1983 and with their paxman velenta engines, amd seeing other BR rolling stock and DMUs! And the old BR uniforms buffet cars interiors etc! And to see old food packaging how chocolate has shrank etc old shops sadly no longer here old cars and vehicles etc! Amazing!

[@ryanohara476]

@MACABRE L.A.😂 I was referring to British Rail (the railway period in Britain just England, Wales, and Scotland, between 1948-1997) not the UK as Northern Ireland's railway network has been operated by "NI Railways" since 1967 ( it's predesssor was "Ulster Transport Authority") before Thatcher had the railways were privatised she privatised everything!) The BR Period their liveries on the trains and their rolling stock I was referring to. I don't know if that was what you ment😁 the sizes of chocolate (shrinkflation) has gotten ridiculously smaller and all do not taste as good now and it is more expensive! our other foods are now smaller Crisps or (potato chips as you will know them). Coca Cola has shrank in size but risen in price due (Soft Drinks Industry Levy in 2016) "reformulate their products to reduce the sugar contentreduce portion sizes for added sugar drinks and importers to import reformulated drinks with low added sugar to encourage consumers of soft drinks to move to healthier choices"

"if you don't have a telephone". A good reminder of how much poverty there was in the 80s. A lot of people didn't actually have one - pretty astonishing to us these days.

[@cashcrop70]

They were a bit more of a luxury in those days and telephone bills were much bigger in real terms, but it was still quite rare not to have a landline phone. Likewise, colour tvs were a relative luxury in the 70s, and we didn't get one until the 80s, but we certainly weren't poor.

[@PC-lu3zf]

We had money but no phone my mum didn’t like them and we had tenants who left a huge unpaid phone bill in 1988 so from 1988 to 1995 we had no phone hard to believe.

Update on the Colin Maxwell case: his mother's boyfriend, Albert Newman, confessed to the murder when suffering from mental illness. He was charged with the murder in 2004 and it went to trial. The prosecution offered no evidence because Newman's confession was unreliable because of his mental health, and the judge accordingly found him innocent. Newman had a history of violence and had been imprisoned before for a "serious offence". He told a fellow inmate in prison that he had killed a 13 year old boy.

Andy JS I concur. I noticed that when watching the uploads in chronological order. I remember realistic violence being portrayed on television was a hot topic during the 1980s and led the introduction of the 9pm “watershed” when you could assume anything broadcast after 9pm wasn’t suitable for children. My parents didn’t much attention to this and as a consequence I can remember most of the episodes from when I first saw them as a primary school pupil.

With Colin Maxwell going missing in Lambeth in the mid 80s, I wonder if it had anything to do with the Lambeth council paedophilia ring?? It’s interesting that someone has asked for an FOI online about it but got rejected. A link seems to suggest that his mother and stepfather stayed in a hostel owned by Lambeth council prior to Colin’s disappearance / body is found in 1986. In addition, I also wonder if Bulick Forsyths murder in 1993 was to do with the cover up for Lambeth too as he was estates manager managing the buildings. It’s scary watching all these and having unanswered questions
