"One night, after drinking heavily..." From an old episode of "Arthur C Clarke's Mysterious World". The last half minute of this is priceless.

The funny thing is, he's got a point. Nice hair, too. From the 1968 Tony Palmer documentary "All My Loving".

Infamous failed BBC TV show from 1969. It was supposed to be an early television prototype of a lad's mag - stuff about birds, cars and shark fishing. It was so dreadful that this pilot episode was never broadcast and the whole idea was rapidly shelved.

Klaus Wagner was a German doctor, conspiracy theorist and stalker of various members of the British Royal Family. He died in a German hospital in April 2007. As a sort of tribute, here's the Klaus-related section of "I'm Your Number One Fan", a Channel 4 documentary about stalkers from the 1990s - made just over a year before Diana died.

Mike Read's stalker, exhilarated as she leaves Classic FM. This is the last of the Blue Tulip clips - the only other stuff left from the original documentary has her crying, or talking about her horrible life, and is really, really not funny. Let's remember her this way instead.

1968 Canadian animation, directed by Eva Szasz, from the book by Kees Boeke. They showed this on "Blue Peter" or something in the 1970s and it blew my very small mind.

Infamous failed BBC TV show from 1969. It was supposed to be an early television prototype of a lad's mag - stuff about birds, cars and shark fishing. It was so dreadful that this pilot episode was never broadcast and the whole idea was rapidly shelved. Stands up nicely today as a camp period piece. Looks so much like Monty Python it's unbelievable. I mean, people say that about anything these days, but this *really* does. PS It's worth sitting through the boring shark fishing item, just for the presenter's quip afterwards.

A very stylish and modern-looking yoghurt advert, a very unstylish and un-modern-looking Woolworths advert, a pseudo-glamorous jeans advert, a politically incorrect advert for some sweets you can't get anymore, and an advert for a Hoover that can pick up a housebrick.

1970s public information film shown in schools (and occasionally on television) in agricultural areas of Britain, warning kids against playing on farms. Horribly disturbing, this traumatised a whole generation of British children.

Early Python. First a nice anti-police sketch, then a sampling of the opinions of the Great British public
