I had such a crush on Jenny Hanley.
-
Magpie, one for silver, six for gold, seven ...👏🏻👏🏻Cracking programme.
-
..best of this ..is Jennie's outfit, really ..
-
I want Miss Hanley's lovely voice on my sat nav. What a lady.
-
“IN” the Isle of Wight? Surely ON. Anyway so good to hear correct English being spoken instead of the awful street slang you hear on the TV nowadays.
-
I still have a rotary dial phone at home. Only bought it two years ago
-
Oh my! Jenny Hanley was very lovely, wasn't she? Come to think of it she still is and it is 2023 now. Now she is on Boom Radio in the UK and is absolutely delightful.
-
God, Jenny was a bit of eye candy 🙂
-
My word i would have liked jenny's number.....
-
Mother-in-law earpiece....😬👍
-
Love the trim phone at the start. My favourite. Memories.

You know standards have fell when a childrens programme from 1976 is more intelletual than anything on tv in 2020 :D
-
5:07 I actually have one of those phones! It's on my desk. I no longer have a landline (because it's 2021 lol) but I can't bring myself to get rid of it XD
-
A analog telephone!!!!! My grandmother had one of those receivers that turned up the volume! She was very grateful for it.
-
Gosh Im almost as confused with the selection of phones in this video as I am going into a store for one today. I liked that modern one where you need to press the buttons with the telephone number you wish to contact. That is state of the art stuff really.

I like how with magpie it’s more helpful I think to teenagers growing up from this and it’s still education in a way but it’s also keeping up to date to that time then and the presenters are not talking down to you like you’re a very young child maybe how blue Peter sometimes did I think and magpie must have understood teenagers more I think at that time and the presenters were really kind and polite with speaking to the viewers as who they were and they knew with what age level were watching I think.

Has anyone dialed 999 to get help for Basshead, or to inquire what may have become of him/it/them? I sorta miss that galoot.

Ericson became a very large telecommunications company........
-
I used too phone the Speaking Clock, but the conversations were always rather disappointing. 😟
-
Peter is a character 🤣
