Not sure about Arthur Askey, I saw one of his films and the plan was centred around baking a cake, but if you compare with Ant and Deck well they're rubbish too. I liked it when the fast show took the piss out of this catch phrase comidy, "Where's me washboard", but Ken Dodd was quite funny at times, though. I saw Frank Carson walking out of a newsagents once on Redbank Road in Bispham, Blackpool and he said "it's a cracker" as he walked out, pretty sad.

I agree in some ways. They had camp back then though, think of John Inman and the carry on films with Kenneth Williams. Val Doonican was a family entertainer of course and Ken was just great. Ant and Deck - well at time's they have been witty on I'm a celebrity I'll give them credit for that and also their Gotchas would have been right at home in the sixties or seventies. For me, It's music that's dead - gone finished and over with. I remember how great this country used to be at providing the world with fantastic music, from the Beatles to Tears for fears. Also, because of political correctness, comedy both stand up and sitcom is in it's final death gasps. A sad time indeed. Glad I saw the old world back then - I was born in 1968 so I remember the very end of old England as a kid - that last few years when shops still had men in long brown coats who served behind counters (open all hours types) the world you're looking at in this video.

Wonderful to see the Blackpool I so loved as a young 'un. If you look for the clues though, you'll find that this is 1966 not '68. Arthur Haynes, who was advertised as appearing at the Winter Gardens, had been dead for two years by 1968. Also, if you look closely, it's possible to see the words "Star time 1966" under Cilla Black's name.Plus I remember seeing Val Doonocan and Charlie Chester at the Queen's, and that was certainly 1966. Brilliant clip though. Thanks for uploading.

I visited Blackpool a couple of times, mainly for the illuminations, and found the place expensive, unfriendly and tacky. I remember restaurants that made sure you knew they didn't like children by forbidding prams, even fold-up ones. I distinctly remember chippies with long queues and a smell of hot rancid fat coming from them. I always had the impression businesses felt they didn't have to try particularly hard to please customers, people would come in their droves to see Blackpool regardless how they were treated. The way the town council has let the place fall to pieces over time is heart breaking. Possibly though this development is unavoidable. The times are over when people were satisfied with worn out fair grounds, living in some converted Victorian terrace house run by a land lady who doubles as cook, a small strip of beach that is nearly always flooded by high tide and cold, damp windy weather. The Costa del Sol is cheaper, has nicer hotels and you go back home with a nice tan.

Our politicians have absolutely destroyed this country through uncontrolled immigration . The damage can never be undone. And it's still going on .....

The working class people of that era seemed far more prosperous and careful about their appearance, than say, their descendants today.(Hardly a tattoo in sight!) The overall standard of maintenance of pretty much everything also seemed better. Britain is becoming more blighted by poverty with every year that passes and this short film can attest to that. A nation in decline and it's been that way for many, many decades now.

I wore 2nd hand clothing, sometimes shoes also, but we were always clean. Clothes washed, ironed, shoes polished. We also had no bathroom, an outhouse, no heat but for coal. Thanks to my mother for showing how to have respect for ourselves regardless.

20 years of uncontrolled immigration. !! Thank our politicians. They destroyed any notions of Social Cohesion or Britishness. Then they tell us " there's no such thing as British culture "!!!
