Being a man in his 30s who lives abroad but who grew up in Bognor, this gives me such a sense of Nostalgia. Well done KZread algorithm. 👏

During the 70’s and 80’s Judith had the best job in television. Jetting off to far flung exotic places that most of us could only dream about.

She's already the colour of a mahogany sideboard so perhaps the producers gave her poor skin a break...

Its so strange when i re watch this program...I remember watching it as my mum used to have it on..and I would always think that the lady presenting it was very old! But she wasnt atall looking at it now...strange how we see things through the eyes of a child lol... and how our evaluations of life differ as we get older ourselves...thank you for these uploads!

There was a guy in our halls of residence who was 21. As 18 year olds we thought he was a dinosaur. He was shunned and pitied. Mind you he was a third year student still in halls.

She's as old as the hills ffs. It's Judith Chalmers who was on Afternoons, the program that intro'd Mary Berry to British housewives in 1974 and this was 16 years after that.

My dad singing at about the 1.55 point. Loved butlins as a child. We still go to bognor butlins once a year with the kids.

Brilliant, thanks for this. Would have been around the time my parents took me to Butlins for the first time.

You could go there for the day and have access to all the facilities. The indoor Scalectrix was the superb.

Been there, done that. Had a family holiday there using a newspaper special offer, cost a tenner. Evening entertainment was Timmy mallet one evening and the chuckle brothers the next

No Botox, fillers....plumping lips......so nice to remember natural beauty

Man what memories. I Was a kid at exactly these times and went to Bognor butlins then also. It is exactly what I remember

We went to Butlins Bognor in 1990. It was quite good for the price.

Judith Chalmers seems to be a very nice lady I am sure. She presented Wish You Were Here on ITV, and made by Thames for all of its duration. The series ran from 1974 to 2003, and she was joined at times by Chris Kelly, who also did Clapperboard on ITV by Granada, and then Food and Drink later on BBC2. He then created Kavanagh QC, the ITV series that John Thaw did after Inspector Morse. Later on the series, John Carter, who had been on BBC1's similar Holiday series before, joined the team on there too. Thank you so too!

I have been to Bognor Regis before, but not to Butlin's which was not really our sort of thing too! However, the area is nice with Pagham Harbour nearby, also Chichester, Arundel, Littlehampton, Worthing, Bosham, Selsey Bill and so much more too. Thank you!

Always amuses me that people go away on holiday… and watch television…

We holidayed as a family at Butlins from the early 70's through to the late 90's, mostly at Bognor. Around 83/84, the Hi-De-Hi style era was ending. By this time in 1989, it was completely gone. Still fun times, but we missed the general atmosphere of the 70's and early 80's style Butlins. But without the change particularly in 1989 onwards, Butlins I don't think would exist now.

I can just see Ms .chalmers and family booking in here for a weekend !! I’ll bet after filming she was chauffeured to the nearest ritz Carlton 🏨

I wish hotels were still that price

I started off looking at videos of The Four Seasons in Maui and ended up here...how on earth??!!

I wonder if I can still get a fact sheet 🤔

Haha Drew Stevens in that last segment of video... anyways, I's still got a duvet cover from the first section of vid, and maybe 2 pillow cases? or 1? somewhere in my gaff? Happy dayz lol

Where is everyone? Guys....?

Now it can be £4500 for 2 weeks in August, absolutely ludicrous, shame, used to be an amazing low cost holiday, now it's just a commercial machine, lost all the innocent charm it had in the late seventies to early eighties, it was paradise then for kids.having said that people still go there but you need to be reasonably well off now to go there, not sure what sir Billy would think of it now, probably not a lot.

My Mum felt that it was expensive even in the 80s - 90s. To secure you next holiday it was a £50 deposit, the same amount as a cruise line was taking as deposit in the 2010s. From memory £50 was a lot of money in the early 80s. Still enjoyed it though, especially the model car / scalextric track shop.

@@ianmillerphotography cheers Ian for reminding about the scalextrix room, I remember that, many hours in there as a kid just putting cars back on the track that flew off on the corners, as for the value of the holiday now compared to late 70s to early eighties so much was included in the price of the holiday, we could have an amazing time as kids with no pocket money, now a lot of the attractions carry an additional cost hence my describing it now as a commercial machine 👍

@Phil Bartlett - I went back there in 2003, well Minehead actually and it wasn't the same. More commercialised. One plus point though, the Jordan racing team were there with one of their cars. I got to practice changing an F1 car wheel.

We went there in the early '90s, main memory is them putting a bunch of kids with down syndrome onto the petrol powered go karts and them driving at full speed into a wall at the other end of the track.
