a mate was going through some old VHS tapes before getting rid of his player
we watched a few episodes of the young ones he recorded off the telly (for old times sake) this was off a properly set up TV in his parents house not some jerry rigged bollocks with one of those set top aerials

This was from the days of, analogue not digital TV, and aerials not cable/satellite ...fucking hell it was fuzzy it's a wonder we can look back fondly and remember this shit because it was barely visible

Also true.
They have the Young Ones on netflix, which presumably is slightly better tech than a 25 year old VHS cassette, but the quality of everything pre about 1999 is dire.

(Please don't tell me it's more than 25 years ago, I'm not sure I'm ready to face that kind of news)

And everyone walked really quickly in the old days, too.
