VHS Bits

VHS Bits

Bits of classic UK TV from VHS tapes I find, in no particular order.

Includes retro adverts, news, continuity, and some complete programmes from various channels and regions.

If you have any requests you should know that the videos on this channel all come from random collections of tapes so the likelihood of having a specific programme is slim.

The copyright of all videos belongs to their respective owners. If you are a copyright holder and intend to block any videos on my channel I would appreciate an email with details of how and where the video can be bought or streamed and I will gladly share this information with my viewers.

    I started upscaling all of my videos because KZread tends to use too much compression on videos under 1080p and it was adding back noise after I spent time cleaning them up

    Why the BBC kept a Saturday mid evening news bulletin still begs belief. A waste of money. BBC 2 never had a mid evening news on Sundays to Fridays, only Saturdays.

    Living in this city at that time, in that nightlife was fucking amazing. No Internet, no moblie phones (other than the house bricks the firm were using😂) Donal tried to make Notts look like the Bronx and edited the show to make it look like he caught Wayne drug dealing. There was no tangible evidence of Wayne dealing drugs and nobody was ever convicted. The truth is Wayne was a nightlife Del Boy, was popular always smiling, spoke to everyone. Donal tried to.make him look like Al Capone.

    Peter Sissons (1942-2019) RIP. It was a huge shock when it was announced that he died, I remember him at Channel 4 News, and for a time moderator for the BBC’s Question Time. Wikipedia: In 2002, Sissons announced the death of the Queen Mother on the BBC, criticism from some newspapers as he wore a burgundy tie and not a black one, he later subsequently presented weekend afternoons on BBC News 24. He retired from the BBC in 2009, announcing on 12 June his intention to retire in the summer in order to write his memoirs.
