The small island of Lundy, situated in the Bristol Channel, was one of the destinations for BBC West's Day Out series in 1978. Presenter Gwyn Richards sailed across to explore the tiny village and included a stop off at Lundy's post office - the home of the oldest private postal service in the world.
Clip taken from Day Out: Ilfracombe and Lundy, originally broadcast on BBC One (South West), Tuesday 17 October, 1978.

and everyone wore flares! I really enjoyed watching that... life was lived at a slower pace back then...
Just as i remembered it. we were there that year. i was nine. One of my fav places in the world. Took my kids back there a few years ago. It hasn't changed that much. they loved it too.

Lets go to Lundy
My parents were there in 1960 while on their honeymoon! I've often wondered what it was like to visit - this was a pleasant and well produced piece. Thank you.
I was 12 years old in 1978 . I guess KZread is about the closest thing we have to time travel ....so far
Looked lovely in the 70s - I wonder what it's like now...🤔

It looks almost exactly the same. No new buildings. Better landing point, though! (It’s an SSSI and administered by the Landmark Trust as such - so no development.)

all those shoes ruined by seawater when alighting! the sun and bikini-clad swimmers made me wonder what temperature it was....probably only about 17C or so!

According to one of the bikini clad swimmers it was quite warm that day
There's a Starbucks, KFC, McDonald's, Pizza Hut, Greggs and JD Wetherspoon pub on Lundy now.
