SAUK SABC January 1976

Found this on my broken DVD recorder, braodcasted round about 2005 on SABC, TV 2. I removed the racist commentary and included Zola Budd/Pieterse which will make you smile!

[@bbh1978]

Wish SABC had an online archive directory - would pay to watch some of the old stuff.Thanks for the post

Thank you so much for the video!....wow, how wonderful to see this after so many years! I was 10 years old in 1976 and I was so excited when we got our first television set. SABC gave us the best programs in that we days and I do miss it so much. I loved many of the programs , both Afrikaans and English and we learned so much as we were growing up. Thank you SABC, for all those wonderful of programs, they were beautiful memories.

Hard to believe they didn't have TV before the 1970s. Can't even imagine that.

[@spencerpetunia8268]

I still struggle to wrap my head around that myself.

[@dreamdiction]

The National Party started television in 1976 so they could scare whites into abandoning apartheid by showing them videos of rioting blacks.

[@millsyinnz]

The SA government didnt want to give the blacks ideas that they could be equal to whites. Plus it didnt want what it saw is 'immoral ideas' promoted. SA was as much a Calvinist theocracy as it was a white supremacist state. Its a wonder that lady didnt get the sack for showing her legs. Would have driven the blacks into a sexual frenzy.

[@AlexEssex8]

It was the discontent amongst white South Africans at not having been able to watch the moon landings that pushed the Apartheid government into reluctantly allowing a TV service to be developed. Due to how late it came, the service launched straight to colour though of course!

[@cliftonboyz1959]

I recall waking up at 3am with my late dad to listen to the Boks play Australia in 1971....no TV ....net radio!

[@omegafilmcorporation]

I don't know why... but the SABC 1976 logo at the beginning really reminds me of LWT (London Weekend Television) logo from the UK.

[@lydin9678]

YES! Exactly the same thought that went through my mind. I used to see it just before 'Mind Your Language' used to start!

[@omegafilmcorporation]

Yeah I agree!! :)

[@jeremiahmcswiney402]

I thought that as well, did LWT sell off a spare logo?

0:36 In this picture there are forty-seven people. None of them can be seen. In this film, we hope to show you how not to be seen. This is Mr. E.R. Bradshaw of Napier Court, Black Lion Road London SE5. He can not be seen. Now I am going to ask him to stand up. Mr. Bradshaw, will you stand up, please?

Good stuff from the opening day of SABC TV on 5 January 1976.

[@satellite9999999999]

Thanks James, I was in Standard 9, Grade 11, in 1976. Wish there was more videos available from that time, we only got a TV much later.

[@mrceleb2006]

...and it premiered exclusively in colour! No black-and-white telecasts ever existed in South Africa until TV was introduced to them in 1975. Almost 20 years later, the late Nelson Mandela (who lived very long...extremely rare for any South African) became a national hero for his nation as the first-ever black president. Since Mandela became president, South Africa participated in international multi-sport events (Olympics, Commonwealth Games, FIFA World Cup, etc.), and has done so ever since now that apartheid is no more.

[@EllaTheKea]

+Shane Spencer Yes, but crimes including murder and rape have gone up. life expectancy has dropped and. South Africa has become the biggest welfare state.

[@mrceleb2006]

Ugh!

[@EllaTheKea]

It's a shame really, the end of apartheid was South Africa's chance to rid itself of it's problems

[@avtransfersUK]

have you got a full copy [undedited] of this broadcast? thanks looking for 'willem' theme tune

[@BMan78]

Are you willing to upload the complete program, including the controversial stuff? It'd be interesting of what views and opinions the SABC allowed to be broadcast. Edit: I noticed the video is a bit cropped, especially some of the text.

[@Drama1234Queen]

Hi there, I hope that you are doing well. I'd like to ask if it would be possible to use this footage for a project that I am busy working on. Please let me know if this is okay?

[@windiamigo5312]

Why was South Africa late in introducing TV?

[@FokkerTISM]

The Nasionale Party believed that TV and English-speaking foreign media would corrupt conservative Afrikaans society. They only caved in because people were upset that they didn't get to watch the moon landing live.
