Hi Chris This was a programme in the 80's and covered vacs, fridges, central heating, sewing machines as well as washers etc....I wore so many copies out I had to get a new master for backup a few years ago.... A little quiz is to study the pic at the end when Tim is sat on a pile of washers and try to name them all.. Have fun, Mike |

Hey, thanks for posting this really fun video! I had my kid brother (14) sit and watch it with me, and he was very entertained as well! I did notice something very special about this video. It features a segment of the early 50's Whirlpool movie, "Mother Takes a Holiday". The Prelinger Archives houses both part one and two of this wonderful movie. I've included the link for part one - it is a MUST watch for anyone on this board! Ben CLICK HERE TO GO TO swestoyz's LINK |
