Hey Guys

Just re-living my childhood a bit by watching a great UK sitcom 2point4 Children and noticed a couple of interesting washers.

The first one is one i can't work out. It a bit like an Ariston in some ways but thats just a stab in the dark. Any ideas?

I hope there was powder in the that drawer lol

Washer appears within the first two minutes...

Next one is a Hoover Electronic by the looks. Could be either the 1100 or 800 model but it doesn't get close enough to see.

Also a box of 90's Persil makes an appearance, not sure if the name is shown but this i guess was back when they didn't cover up brands too much in TV...

Theres also a naked Swedish man in this part who makes an appearance... viewer discretion is advised lol.

You see the washer at about 2:45 in this vid.

Thats all for now just sharing a couple of flashbacks to my childhood. I must have only been about 10 when i started watching this. Came on after Keeping Up Appearances from memory :-)

Matt,

 

The machine in the first clip looks very Zanussi to my 'only used an old one once' colonial eyes!

Door and Dials make me want to say Hoover. When was this broadcast/filmed?

Draw makes me think Ariston, option buttons too.

This is the kind of Hoover which I mean, from around 2000.
