1964: A Curious Case of Black Magic in Norfolk | Tonight | Weird and Wonderful | BBC Archive
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QWTw3xoGhg4
„Seit jeher ist Norfolk von Hexerei durchzogen.“ – F.R. Buckley
Chris Brasher berichtet über drei Vorfälle in Norfolk, bei denen es offenbar um Rituale der schwarzen Magie ging. Die Vorfälle ereigneten sich an drei verschiedenen Orten: in den Ruinen von Castle Rising, wo zwei menschliche Puppen und ein Schafherz an die Tür genagelt wurden; in der Bawsey Church, wo ein Schafherz und eine schwarze Kerze gefunden wurden; und in der Babingley Church, wo eine weitere menschliche Puppe, ein Schafherz und eine schwarze Kerze entdeckt wurden. In allen drei Fällen waren seltsame Symbole mit Ruß in den Boden gezeichnet. Was hat das alles zu bedeuten – könnte es sich um einen ausgeklügelten Schwindel handeln? Um etwas Licht in die Angelegenheit zu bringen, interviewt Brasher den Autor und ehemaligen Drehbuchautor F.R. Buckley, der die Ereignisse aufmerksam verfolgt hat. Buckley teilt seine Erkenntnisse über die Symbole mit und bietet eine Interpretation ihrer Bedeutung an. – Ausschnitt aus „Tonight“, ursprünglich ausgestrahlt auf BBC One am 19. Februar 1964.

BBC Archive: “Men's Christmas reflections, 1961”
https://www.bbc.co.uk/archive/christmas_reflections/zjjp6v4
This is like something from Monty Python’s “Upper Class Twit of the Year Awards” sketch.

[🇬🇧] Starting the day with this classic 1975 documentary - "The Ghost Hunters", available on the BBC Archive YouTube channel. 👻
Maybe because I was born in the late '70s, I really enjoy TV programmes from that time... 📺 Especially if they're about the paranormal ✨

[💚] Mi komencas la tagon per ĉi tiu klasika dokumentario el 1975 - "The Ghost Hunters", havebla ĉe la YouTube-kanalo de BBC Archive. 👻
Eble ĉar mi naskiĝis fine de la 1970-aj jaroj, mi vere ĝuas televidprogramojn el tiu tempo... 📺 Precipe se ili temas pri paranormalaj aferoj ✨

I'm watching a #BBCArchive clip about a dresser that is potentially haunted as it moves and shakes out the drawers seemingly by itself.
As they were showing some of the equipment they were using to monitor the supernatural phenomenon, I noticed a #ZXSpectrum
That's how I know this channel is legit and authentically British! 😁

This feels like a comedy sketch but it isn't.

No hard hats, goggles, or ear defenders and I bet safety boots were low on the ground.
A fag on the go while doing your job.
Also some amazing engineering.

BBC Archive posts some gems to its YouTube account and this, a rare glimpse of the early 80's punk scene in Belfast featuring Ruefrex, is well worth a watch if you're a fan of SLF, Undertones or anything Good Vibrations related...

1969 was the year I started work as a computer operator. I do not remember any shops which had the technology mentioned in this video from the BBC's "Tomorrow's World"

Ever been on the Glasgow Subway? Well it was very different in 1975, compared to the modern stations with the Stadler trains... James Hogg of the BBC's Nationwide programme takes a trip around the network https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZkfcYE5V_Xs #Glasgow #Subway #BBCArchive

I feel this is something that the good people of Mastodonie will appreciate.
Though I hope others will appreciate this look back to simpler times...
Have to admire the Guard's sang froid about the whole thing.

Aah, I absolutely love old #BBCArchive videos about technology like this one.
Memories get dulled over-time, so to see 90's internet the way it was back then really brings it all back.
