Tea Making Tips (1941)

Here’s top tips on how to make the perfect cup of tea.

This film, from 1941, is the latest in the series of fims we have been highlighting from the treasure trove that is the British Film Institute (BFI) National Archive.

The tips are spot on; always use freshly boiled water, warm the pot, etc but just one thing that we think’s missing; don’t forget to stir the pot once just after you’ve poured the water in.

What’s also great about these archive films is listening in to the historic accents, whereby even your lowly charlady sounds posher than a present day Dame.

More from the BFI Archive:
Snow (1963)
Rush Hour (1970)
The Smallest Car in the Largest City in the World (1913)
Piccadilly (1929)
Trafalgar Square Riot (1913)
We Are the Lambeth Boys (1959)
Colour On The Thames (1935)

Fordson Snow Machine – 1929 Concept

With snow falling afresh in the UK wouldn’t it be cool if you could trade your motionless modern motor car for one of these Fordson Snow Machines from 1929?

Sadly it was only a Concept Vehicle apparently.
