Re: Vintage Slots in Films and Newsreels
I wonder if Cathy's training film taught anything other than soft Spam sells. Maybe we could induce Nursey to do a video for PennyMachines??

PS. Hit again by the SPAM program. The deleted word was "p-o-r-n." I'm going to put myself in detention now.

It should already be on iplayer 13rebel, as this was the second time this episode of BH has been broadcast - although that is not unusual for the BBC these days.13rebel wrote:Bargain Hunt toy special broadcast today on BBC1 shows Darren Hesketh's museum at about twelve minutes from the start and lasts about five minutes. Should be on BBC i player in due course
Re: Vintage Slots in Films and Newsreels
Yes it can be viewed by going to toy special 9.10.2020 series 56

A rather nice floor standing strength tester on The repair shop BBC one 13/14 today. Paperwork dial shows A. Rowland and son and Improved strength test company, Cannon street on the cast iron body. Should become available on i player.

John Gresham
It's been a while since we talked about John Gresham.
There is a mention of this video on here, but I couldn't find a link to it, so here is one for those who haven't seen it before.
Magpie was so much cooler than Blue Peter.

"Magpie was so much cooler than Blue Peter"

A nice-looking slot machine, is it Watling? I wonder if he played it in the movie and if the clip is available?
EDIT-: he does play the machine but not very clearly (Men o War part 1, 11min 30 seconds into the film available on youtube)

This may be on the forum already, but I've not come across it, thank god the blueprints for the "coin-op supermarket" never came to reality

Previously posted here, together with a bunch of other Pathé coin-op stuff, but if Pathé take it down, youtube will serve...
