With the naming cd video for laserdisc content, they made to confusion about disco vision, laser vision and laser disc even worse. But great presentation, thanks for sharing.

I remember watching this thirty years ago. I thought it was amazing. Funnily enough, part two is kicked off by Douglas Adams. He asks the question of what might happen in thirty years time and what we can't see coming. Well, now we know I guess...

Oh the days before digital video codecs. Just 5 years later came the completely digital Compact Disc Digital Video, and 4 years after that, DVD.

The programme was ruined by then.

Surprisingly no comments about the apple vision pro. Interestingly, the vr headsets and concepts they have one this episode don't seem to far off from what we have. Pretty fascinating. Most likely what we have today is based off early tech and designs like this I would imagine. Of course the ui, presentation, and maybe the fact that hey had cameras to use as pass through technology to see in front of you is probably a lot different than they imagined back then.

Italiano!

First aired on Sunday, 4th September 1983, and repeated many times over the course of the next decade.

Frankie Howerd was a great performer with his own individual style. This was shown perfectly in the original 'Up Pompeii' series from the 1969/70 era. There episodes were outstanding because of Frankie, the directors close-ups, and the excellent writing of Tolbot Rothwell. This follow-up is a poor imitation of the original. Only a few embers remain.

What an awesome video. Wish there was more stuff like this that aimed to show us what made these ancient authors feel so vital for throughout the centuries.

Considering that it’s at 3.75 ips very clean high end…

That glasses-free 3D TV works on a similar principle to the 3DS right? Albeit that came out 20 years later. I think there was a smartphone that worked on similar lines too but nobody ever sold a consumer TV that worked the same way, perhaps because the need to sit still in one position for it to work was more suited to handheld devices.

Yeah maybe this guy was not as great as people think he is. I cannot support the Contras as I have a visceral hatred of insurgencies but I would have supported an American invasion. Restore democratic rule under United Nations auspices like in Granada. Oh what should have been.

1993 was the year Rory Bremner started properly at Channel 4 and where he would remain for another 17 years. So it was a good choice for Channel 4 to get him to deliver their alternative Christmas message. One year later, this was banished to the Channel 4 archives for obvious reasons.

This was from Christmas Day 1996.

A billion calculations per second is equivalent to 1 gigaflop (GFLOPS). The term FLOPS stands for Floating Point Operations Per Second and is a measure of computer performance, The Apple M2 chip, found in the late 2022 MacBook Air and MacBook Pro 13, offers a peak performance of 3.6 TFLOPs. The Apple M3 chip, which is used in some of Apple’s laptops, has a peak performance of 4.1 TFLOPs, There’s also an Apple M3 Max chip, which has a higher peak performance of 16.4 TFLOPs2. This chip is used in more powerful devices and can perform 16.4 trillion floating-point operations per second.

Used to be able to recite this word for word 😂

3D TV was a huge flop

This video is 30yrs old. We're so far behind on VR.

Thank you to whomever did this. It’s one of my favourite childhood memories.

“Answers on a postcard” 😂 What a faff.

Amazing! Do I remember right that it used to be on about 2am?

I like the glowing silicon process also the sound in the crystal for the hologram

Just realised at the end , that was officer Crabtree…😂😅😊

I’ve been looking for this for decades! It really influenced my intellectual pursuits. I was a teenager when it was on and I went out and bought the book, which opened up a world of literature I would never have found in my family or school. My parents were horrified. 🤣 They should have tried Chaucer, it would have set their eyebrows on fire.

Hmm... could there also be a 50fps version of this?

Frankie looked a bit ill here, its sad to think just a year later he was gone

hoover is old xD we use dyson or gtech

holographic tv is still experimental and we have faster computers nowadays

The week i was born.

The Who sums it up best: "Meet the new boss ... Same as the old boss."

I had a CDV compatible player, but there was very little CDV single software released in Japan, so I only had two titles that I liked. de gozaru!! CDVプレイヤーは持っていても日本でCDVシングルタイトルは少なくて、お気に入りの２枚しかもってなかったでござる

"civilized humane society " lol when have communists ever created that

With all the virtual reality and 3D technology we have now, people still prefer to sit in front of a square 2D box!!

Anna Ford used to be a news 📰 🗞️ presenter on BBC1 and ITV. She left the BBC News 🗞️ 📰 on Thursday 27th April 2006 is 17 previous years ago in 2023. Good 👍 luck 🍀 Anna Ford. She’s retired from her job. Not sacked. It was Anna Ford’s decision that she wanted to terminate her job. She was a good 👍 BBC News 🗞️ 📰 presenter. Changes do happen and life moves on. Anna Ford had retired from her job. 👍👍👍

Eddie has to be one of the most overrated comedians of the last forty years.

Interesting to think I'm looking back at them from the next century 30 years later

These comments are f hilarious 😂

Are we any better off than 1992, that year is like yesterday to me.

forgotten what a great program it was 😊

I think that the appalling state of ITV wholly lies with the arrogance of those ITV chief execs of the late 80’s and 90’s. They just sat back and thought everybody will stay loyal to ITV and rewarded themselves handsomely especially at LWT. Surely they must have realised the game was up when Murdoch got the football rights in 1992. Everyone was sick of ITV by the end of the 90s and then arrived Sky Digital. And now the once great ITV is the equivalent of MTV. Nobody gives a damn about it anymore

I have no professional insight in this in this and was at secondary school when it broadcast - just a passing interest, but the notable absence of independent outside production companies stuck out to me here. I seem to remember Hat Trick certainly existed by this point and maybe that side of the market was just assumed to be outsiders for C4 and BBC2 and would have no further reach than that. Also zero mention of Sky. Sky One's contemporary output of the time was awful but obviously Murdoch knew this so fought with footy, films and rolling news. But obviously even though his game plan was public knowledge back then, there was an assumption it would flounder. Underestimation of opponents or changing tastes bites everyone in the backside sooner or later. Very interesting... For those anorak wearers among us!

Just to clarfy, this report is actually from The Money Programme, not The Media Show (which was a Wall to Wall production for Channel 4) ...

A PS5 is roughly equivalent to 10,000 CM2 supercomputers. Yikes! I recall watching this episode. Such a statistic would have melted my brain back then.

This is proof that Meridian's logo existed in 1991.

3D TV, will it ever catch on?

The Contras gave piricuacos hell! Ortega better not to push the envelope or he’ll have an even worst hell

Isnt it crazy im 31 and not once was this mentioned in any history class from elementary to basic college classes(im sure at uni or further degrees in workd afffairs thered be a talk sbout it) but it went like this tx history, american history colonial wise,then slowly transfered to civil war then to modern gwat thats about it,its almost like they brush over wars thst were really for more nafarious things

Spanish English french Portugal what would the world be like if they never boarded their wooden ships and spread their religious ideas all over the word

Dear lord. The USA has shown itself to be the biggest pack of liars since. Look at the middle east... destroyed countries all over the place. But, kind of cool to see that the propaganda is the same as it ever was lol! Sandino lives on however as the truth is the truth.

"you play with the slim puss?" 😂🤣
