'That is no country for old men....Caught in that sensual music all neglect Monuments of unageing intellect.' W.B.Yeats 'Sailing To Byzantium.' 1926

I maintain that these clips from 'Candid Camera' of 40 to 50 years ago, still display traits in the reactions of the Brits, which could be seen 'then' and would still be seen 'today'.
Technology may have transformed the Britain where old men now live, but the way 'most' people behave has not changed much in those 50 years.
