Britain in the 1940s Tells the story of this turbulent decade during and after the war through the eyes of newsreel cameras, from the destruction of the blitz in 1941 to the marriage of princess Elizabeth to prince Philip in 1947.

Nostalgic look at Britain in the 1950s, including events such as the opening of the M1 motorway, the Munich air disaster, the last woman to be hanged in Britain, dance crazes, flamboyant fashion and much more.

The 1960’s promised great things, it was a decade of optimism, idealism and liberation, the antidote to the years of austerity and modesty following the Second World War. The footage including newsreels shows just how remarkable a decade it was with advances in science, medicine and the attitudes of younger people who had gained greater freedom with disposable income. Like or loath the sixties, our lives today have been inexorably shaped by these events. This is history in the making, so take a short trip down living memory lane with this brilliantly produced documentary series. The Way We Were – (Those Were The Days) Britain in the 1960’s. Written and produced by Simon Richardson. 2003 – Apologies for any copyright issues, the uploading of this video is not for ANY element of profit or personal gain.
This video looks at Poverty in 1960s Britain and is useful for students studying A Level or AS Level Modern British History. The video looks at how many families were living in slums or homeless during this period and how many pensioners struggled during the period.
