As a teenager in the 80's times seemed so much simpler . Tnx for the memories

Went there for several holidays in the 1960's. Butlins was still open then and on the pier the steel stella was a great roller-coaster.

I used to go there all the time as a kid. Best times of my life with my nan and grandad there too. My mother lives nearby in Holland on sea so I still go back often now. Thanks for uploading.

Thank you for sharing. Great memories.

You mean Oscars night club that used to be there right on the pier?

The shorter of the 2 presenters has a very familiar voice. Does anyone know who it is?

As a local this about the time of the decline in Clacton. You certainly wouldn’t go filming there now you get mugged.. it’s a terrible place now…..

Nice report but the music doesn'r really fit into that decade.

Bonito ambiente pero el agua esta muy fria😂 🇪🇸

@@alex-E7WHU I'm more concerned about now to be honest. I saw an elderly London ( cockney) couple call a single woman in her thirtys a f'ing C because she forget to put a divider on the conveyor belt of the checkout. Obviously not all Londoners are arseholes but there are enough to ruin the town.
