Available in both high and lower quality is this new remake of the journey from London to Brighton showing the line as filmed 30 years apart in 1953 and again in 1983. Both journeys are sort of synchronised so that differences can be seen clearly. The number of track changes are most evident.

  • OUTSTANDING!!! I remember watching this for real in 1983 and was blown away by it! Thanks to youtube - I've finally been able to see it again and it's just as good. I agree with Ben31337I, a new version in 2013 would be great!

  • This is very good it must have taken ages to sync it.

  • For some reason what sticks in many peoples' minds is the theme music from the 1980s version when asked. Remember this like yesterday being 10 when it showed on BBC2!

  • @Cool2BCeltic Yeah, I would LOVE it if someone made another one.

    I can't believe I didn't get E-mails from all of the replies to this post.

  • @Ben31337l Sounds like a good idea. 1983 may have seemed very different from 1953 but one thing that shows how different the 21st Century is from 1983 is that an ordinary everyday citizen with a digital camera and a PC plus permission to ride in the cab of a London to Brighton train could make their own version of this film.

  • @supergav67 Other than 3D how about in HD too. The next London to Brighton after 2013 if BBC decides to do it would be in 2043 then 2073 then 2103. I'd love to see the 1953 version getting compaired to the 2103 version but I'd be 110.

  • how can a train like this go THAT FAST?

  • The same paint has lasted well at the stations.

  • @kaiyan246 - not sure of the actual piece but it does sound very much like something the BBC Radiophonic Workshop would come up with. Perhaps Peter Howell or Paddy Kingsland?

  • Very well done, how little changes in 30 years.

    Thanks, one for the album I would say..
