ESB Film
-
06-07-2013 10:16pm#1The ESB came to my secondary school in 1980 showing a film about the work of the ESB, and how electricity was generated.
Must have worked because I joined them in 1981 as an apprentice.
Just wonder if anyone else remembers this.
Most here probably not even born then
Anyone know if the film is available on-line I can't find it on youtube.0

Did they have electricity back then?
:D:DJust wonder if anyone else remembers this.
No, I don't remember it despite the fact that I am a child of the 60's.
But I did find this ESB add from the 1980's:
They don't make them like that any more (thankfully).0 -

Remote parts of Ireland only got connected about 10 years before that.
This film was more in the style of a documentary rather than a advert.
It was telephones that were not available everywhere in the 80's 0 -
