Oh my God! Its the Meades-in-ator! 'I need your clothes...your boots...and your copy of Pevsner!'

:::blink blink::: Bare bottomed Meades?????? (But he keeps the shades on. Of course.)

Is that "The Red Flag" playing on the Tonibenometer?

I feel a very strong nostalgia for the "futurism" of the 1970s - Apollo-Soyuz, Concorde, Gerry Anderson sci-fi series, 2000AD comic, Kraftwerk, early video games, etc.
Yes, even Tony Benn in his futurist mode...
This episode really grabs my interest from the start

Another cracker - thanks MeadesShrine!

Gotta love that tonibennometer.

Thanks for putting this up apparently the DVD Box Set is getting released on Sept 1st Cat No: BBCDVD2601. Let's hope so. I've got a number of his progs recorded but I'm missing loads more.

I think all of the "abroads" are available on DVD. £80ish!
It's a sign of the BBC's current state that Meades' superbly eloquent series have never been put out on DVD, whereas Dimbleby's dumbed-down and insight-free How We Built Britain got a release just months after it appeared on TV.

I haven't seen this in years - since it was on TV in fact. Its so great to see it again, particularly as I have been unable to get hold of it on DVD. Meades' humour is so dry - he's really cutting.
