Panorama: predictions from 1960

Wasn’t the world a scary place in 1960? This programme does what we’d all like to do: have a good dig through the BBC’s prodigious archive material. It centers around Panorama clips from 1960, with Richard Dimbleby and Robin Day presenting predictions about what the 60s were going to hold for the world.

There’s a rather irritating use of laptops to display the clips, presumably to highlight how far we’ve come in the last 48 years.

Hello Mr Expert. We’d like you to watch the clips on this laptop screen here.
Um. OK. Won’t I look stupid though?
No, not at all. It will make you look modern.
But it says ‘VAIO’ in huge letters just underneath the screen. Won’t the cameras see it?
Don’t worry about that.
