  • I know these were made in the 70's. But how sexist is this, I mean were women kidnappers, of course there must have been some. It's weird in Part 1 of this video, how the kids just say "No thank you" to the kidnappers and they accept it, instead of grabbing the young child and putting them in their boot. Creepy ads, give me the shivers. Thanks for the upload.

  • 8:16 Lol @ Aladdin rubbing the lamp in a strange, masturbatory fashion.

  • fuck sake, first no baby donkey no no mother fucking puppys. whats up with these peadophiles and not following through :S

  • would that have scared me when I was 7 ....hmnmm???

  • @bettypro

    I watched it when I was 7 and it gave me nightmares for years.

  • @domprague when did they stop ( :

  • @bettypro

    They lasted a good ten years and even when I was a teenager who was six foot three (1.9m), I still felt anxious if I was approached by strangers.

  • He's my pretend unkle!!!

  • Comment removed

  • Policeman: "Can you remember if there was anything funny about the car"

    Girl: "It was flashing red!"

  • Me and my mate a year ago had this man asking us where we lived and asking us if we wanted a ride, so I hit him with a big stick in the park and ran and got my dog

  • Seems like they got a real cop for 2:30.

  • @hahahahaha same here and all my teachers hate me I'm 17 lol and I'd beat the shit out of a pedophile

  • it said tell your mom or a police man or your teacher. i don't live near a po po station, my mom is dead, and none of my teachers would give a shit.

  • MY MUM AND DAD AREN'T ORDINARY GOOD PEOPLE.

  • Uncle Fester The Child Molester

  • The irony of these films, and why they were stopped was and is that strangers are not usually a risk. It is nearly always people known to the child. Parents, uncles, foster carers, child care workers etc who are a risk. Hence 'dont talk to strangers was dropped' as it often hid abuse as children wouldn't tell people.

  • @burntfaceman86

    Good point but there should be room for both.

  • I was taken away by a stranger, he wore red  leather gloves, I was only 6 years old, my 14 year old brotther came to rescue me.

  • @Feisty1967 thank goodness, glad you ended up ok

  • Interesting choice of animation for the end credits! lol

  • remember kids...you can get a grown-up you don't like put in prison for 20 years and his house burnt down if you tell other grown ups he showed you his rude parts and offered you sweeties to touch them

  • A stranger is just a friend you haven't met.

  • I remember our class being shown this on a 16mm projector in the school hall in about 1980. Looks so old hat now, but the message is still relevant, and very well put over, actually.

  • @Gannett2011 I got the predecessor to this, put bluntly, it scared the shite out of me.

  • Oh shit Janey's pretend uncle is in some serious trouble now lol

  • @darthbinks99 how was i supposed to know! im only 14 dammit i dont hear about these things!

  • who the fuck is gary glitter

  • Genie making a suggestive motion in the credits much?

  • Cops aren't always trustworthy. A female cop once purposely tried to lead my mother and me in a bad neighborhood. Also, there have been cases of policemen pulling over female drivers tand asking for sex or dates. You must be careful with EVERYONE.

  • my friend was out somewhere he wasn't supposed to be as it was ages away from his house and nearly grabbed by this guy but he got away. He decided to go home and tell his mum he was at a friend's house. Then a car stopped and someone inside said "Hey, what are you doing here?" and he said "Oh crap, listen here, you bleeping peado, i don't want a bleeping ride, bleep off, ok?" Even though he wasn't allowed to swear. Then he looked in the car....and it was his mum! XD

  • I was shown this film twice while I was at Primary School, I remember at the time there was a big controversy about it in the media, with some people saying its too scary for children. Can I just say, for my own part, I saw the film twice and I was not affected by it or scared in any way.

  • Why do I keep hearing Russel Brands voice in my head when Iwatch this?

  • That shadow hovering over the girl is downright unsettling.

  • @NathanF11989 Tell me about It I saw this when It first aired It gave me nightmares I was 7 at the time

    But I does give a good message don't go with strangers from a kids point of view It did good as It made kids at the time to take heed and be safe

  • @wobber999 Absolutely. This little film highlights all the dangers without being overly graphic but without shying away from the seriousness of the theme it wishes to convey. It may be forty years old but things like this should still be shown in schools today.

  • Typical Brits so polite even with pedos id say GTH PERV

  • @Thinker297 This was the 1970s and the world paedophile was not common usage then. It is typical of the 1970s but not now.

  • @MsMrReason you misunderstood my comment im pretty sure they used pervert back then

  • @Thinker297 Nope we used the term 'dirty old man' as kids.

  • 999 what the hell its 911

  • @xXxDylansAkeelahxXx 999 is what england ring if there is an emergency, and 911 is what americans ring right? sorry im not American. :)

  • Great vid. Gotta listen to Radio 2 now night/morning.

  • omg this sends a shiver up my spine, it was always drilled into me even as a little girl that i must tell my mum where i was going, even when i was eighteen i always used to tell her where i was going lol........

  • these days you have to wait 24 hours before the cops will do anything the kid could be dead by then :(

  • horrific

  • Holy shit that cop was badass.

  • I saw this as a kid in 1981 with all the other kids at my primary school (at the age of 6)-at the 03:20 mark, ever kid wet their pants . . . . 03:01 = "Hello sir. Could you get out of the car so I can beat the living crap out of you?" As an adult what they say at 05:55 is actually quite horrible- what's happened? Better not to know . . .

  • I could have told you that this was Richard Taylor Cartoons, the same company behind the Protect and survive animation, Crystal Tipps, and the Charley PIFs, but I would LOVE to know who the voice over for this is- he's the chap who provided the voice over for a very well known PIF about fireworks that ends "Will one of them be YOUR child?"

  • @keelen35 Obviously I'm not British would you tell me what "chap" means? I'm trying to learn more British words.

  • @halcaannen Chap is another word for guy, fellow, man etc.

  • @NathanF11989 Thanks.

  • @halcaannen "chap" refers to a guy, fella, bloke, man, however you want to refer to a man. "Chap" is an English posh way of referring to a man, its not in use much in Modern English.

  • "Jolly Good" do British Police still say that?

  • I saw this as a primary school first year c.1976. The scene where the narrator says the man could have taken Janet's clothes off and the bit about the girl in the car thinking she's going to see some puppies has stayed with me ever since, so the film did its job.

  • The copper asks,was the car clean or did it need a wash?A bit of a silly twat question.

  • I disagree, if it's dirty then it'll be easier to spot.

  • My God I remember this! They played it at my junior school, saw it when I was around 8. I so remember the bit about Lucy, with that sinister shadow looming over her as she whimpers on the sofa. The narrator's voice too, somehow it stuck in your mind. Still, hilarious how all the so-called ordinary men looked like caricature paedophiles. "They may be lonely or peculiar..." Peculiar! who says that anymore? Anyone remember the fireworks talks every Nov? The gory slideshow in the hall? Still done?

  • the car was taken from the dealership and dat puppies storie is old

  • Not sure on the part where it says, telling some one where to go if they ask the way and nicely too. Adults don't need directions from kids. At least in my opinion.

  • Yeah, that made me wonder. while you stop and go "Erm...let me see..." and start looking for the best way, he grabs you and bundles into the boot!

    Yeah, what adult asks a kid for directions?

    A 'peculiar' one no doubt.

    I don't know why that expression 'peculiar' is tickling me so much.

    And doesn't the paed by the roundabout with the goldfish look just like Jarvis Cocker?

    No! it's Steven Merchant! Knew he reminded me of someone. The paed I mean, not the other way around.

  • "if a child is reported missing then the police come over and do...........nothing!!!"

    unless its' the child of a politician/rich person

  • @Emrald70 Try not to pass comment without thinking! I have spent hours taking details and looking for missing kids and I take EVERY one sriously even the ones that go missing twice a week and are usually found drunk! If you encourage an attitude of mistrust in the Police on this issue then we really cant help!

  • i am sorry m8, i can see u were deeply offended

    all i know of the police is news reports, and that you have to do what the law passed by the government says

    just a few weeks ago i read about the police helping social services raid a house and take away a baby from her parents who hadn't been abused in the slightest

    but if u react that strongly then i can see u care and i shouldn't pass judgement without knowing u

    i'm sorry again

  • No problem. Apology accepted! It takes a decent person to do that and you clearly are. I do understand peoples frustrations at the type of thing you describe because I have felt it myself many times. What I love about these films though is that there is an almost universal trust of us and I am worried that kids are losing that . In a similar film "stranger danger" also around in the 70s in the opening credits it shows a cop and says "we all know we can trust him." That's how I want kids to feel.

  • i agree

    there is too much paranoia in the world today, and the newspapers slamming everyone and everything in the public eye encourages it

    i'm a youth above 12 under 20! according to newspapers we're apparently mortal enemies

  • Yes I spend most of my time arresting innocent people and being institutionally racist and from what I've been led to believe you no doubt wear a hoodie, drink too many alcopops and carry a knife. The daily mail has quite a lot to answer for!! I got into the job because I love the feeling of putting away a genuinely nasty piece of work. But like the video says most people are nice and kind. That includes people 12 - 20 and EVEN cops.

  • indeed, so let's both be civil and give each other the benefit of the doubt until proven otherwise

    it was nice having a reasoned discussion with u m8, and i'm glad we ended it right

  • you must think pretty low of me for saying wat i said

    but despite what i said i'm actually very open-minded, and i can't stay hostile to someone who is clearly passionate about what they do

    maybe i'm rong about the police, but i've seen and heard things, and like any1 else i base my ideas on them

  • ..I hate these kinds of movies..But I watch them anyway. It kind of reminds me of what happend when I was little... /:

    Stupid old pervert.

  • my first car was a hillman avenger...

    but i'm no garry shitter!!

  • What's a better pursuit car than a morris minor...

  • The Hillman Avenger - the getaway car of choice for the professional perv! (oddly enough, British police started using Hillman Avengers after this film was made!)

  • The Shadow is that of Gary Glitter

  • As I commented on Pt1, this is definitely the scariest short film ever made. I had completely forgotten the 'shadow' part yet at that scene a strange, yet familiar, cold flush of fear swept through me. Has any film ever been so effective at imprinting such strong emotion into people? Given the responses I can't think of any so powerful as to have a decades later effect. Incredibly powerful and proof that strong emotions really can lie dormant until triggered. Thank You Alanlovedog-A Classic!

  • Surely you must remember 'Lonely Water'???

  • I remember this from school too - like everyone else, I remembered the creepy shadow hovering over the little girl at 3:13

  • Oh, lord, I remember this so vividly. More for the fact that I am called Lucy and at the time it made it all the more frightening.

  • bloody hell, the 3:13 part is well like a horror movie, but thats how PIF's were back then tho, scare you into never doing anything you shouldent. I think how children are educated now is weaker, and less effective

  • what if a police officer was a pedophile, would they trust the small molested girl or the honored police officer? think about that

  • so true

  • My God! I never thought I would see this again, I've been searching for it on youtube for ages and ages to no avail. Thanks for uploading this, I thought I'd imagined it! However, I think in its naive 70s way it doesnt address the fact that most children are at risk from members of their own family. A fact that wasnt picked up on in the 1970s.

  • Its not the fact they didnt realise it i dont think, its the fact that how can you easily make adverts safeguarding children from that?. Your own family is where a child should feel safe and be safe. Its like you could die in your car with your seat belt on when your stone cold sober, but you see adverts warning you not to drink and drive and not to drive without your seat belt on.

  • My goodness, this brings back a few unpleasant memories. They showed us this in school and the only scene I can remember is the one with the little girl cowering in fear on the sofa at 3.13. I think it scared the living shit out of everyone.

  • Yes, I was just saying this. Lucy on the sofa with the scary shadow. I remember it vividly. These kids were just like us, bar the accent. Living in HK now, I am amazed at the freedom of English kids. I'd forgotten it. HK kids are never ever allowed out to play. Supervised rigidly. Never seen a kid with scabby knees, dirty face, they're told not to run or shout. Never seen one really climb or swing, they're decorously pushed in a slight sway. And play on derelict sites!!!

  • 14:19 bit reminds me of the Wicker Man
