Ain't seen this in a while. "That was a public information film." Usually between the weather, the PIF and the national anthem. God bless her!! L.O.L.
Love the ending. Talk about stating the obvious. Any short TV spot that can traumatise someone or scare kids shitless is bound to be a PIF. That or an advert for a new series of the Teletubbies
I love it when he lifts his head, and then it thuds down on the floor. Ive done that so many times waking up after partys, usualy everythings blurry like that too. I think the wife sawed the ladders so thy would break, she looked disappointed he wasnt dead
First time I've seen this and by heck, if it hasn't shit me RIGHT up. There's something so bleak, so grimly functional, so desperately dispassionate about these old seventies PIFs isn't there? They still retain the power to shock and disturb, even decades later.
Reminds me of this cartoon where they showed a man getting eaten by a tiger, then a motorway and an ambulance siren, and the voice-over said something about "it'll not only be YOUR neck", then it just cut off IMMEDIATELY. No slogan. As a result, I can't remember what the precise message was.
Quite a well known one that. Voice of Lord Patrick Troughton, who actually managed to sell the premise. It's on the Tube, or it should be, as well as Charley I.
That cat was like "Shit, I'm getting the fuck out of here!"

Who paints their walls with Horlicks? I mean, really. Perhaps it was issued from the department of Common Sense and Taste.
Although...yeah. That IS creepy, isn't it? ...Brr.

Don't drive really fast in the fog or the dark.

PIFs used to do that all the time.
