Anita & the Kids of United Europe

 

I've uploaded some 1989 episodes, some more to come. In episode about Great Britain (clip 1 below), is a very young Scottish boy in a kilt singing and dancing. And there's a boys choir (Liverpool Cathedral Choir singing Yesterday with the host). Rather few good scenes, mainly in the second half. Much better is my Belgian clip (clip 2, no classical choir, no sailor suit and Lederhosen though).

 

Info 2: Aled Jones: Voices From the Holy Land, Jongens van 15

As announced the 2 clips. Aled Jones full VHS 60 minutes and 15 minutes Jongens van 15 , including Coir boys from the Rotterdams Jongenskoor. I had a post about this choir, maybe including this boy

Update: Thursday's Child (1972)

I have re-uploaded this pic to the post. I like this collar. Rare color and stripes. Obviously Clare Walker. Also other boys and girls in historical clothes.

Main post rating 3

Cider with Rosie (1998)

 

Another missig post. A very young boy in a sailor suit. Light blue big collar. Straw hat. Pic from 5. Dec 2019. UK/USA 1998.

Rating maybe ~3 or less. I assume few/very few and brief scenes.

I think I now have most of the notable missing posts. I think these are from an older computer, I have copied later. I will now continue mainly with Our Gang episodes.

Many pics of rating 4 and less are also still missing but posts exist. Same for some (higher rated) updates. But most best pics should be in the main posts.

I only have checked this briefly. There are also 3 other movies and a stage play.

I think few good scenes. I mainly remember The Secret Garden.

Sorry for the title, but that's how it's called.

Pic 1 at 1h24. Pic 2 at 16 minutes. That scene is quite long ~16-27 minutes. Movie is 2h24 long.

Rating ~5.

Not that bad but due to the brief scene rating 3-4.

Happy New Year! This new documentary has been aired on Dec 23th. (S1e1) But probably these scenes are also available on other Kelly Family DVDs.

Rather few and brief scenes here, also walking rear view (of the oldest of the three). These scenes were filmed in 1979.

Very interesting. I have to check later for more and better clips.

Rating ~6 for now.

I previously had a 2011 documentary here, but I don't remember if they contained same or similar scenes.

Fleming also starred in s1e2. Helene Joy in a medium blue sailor-style bathing costume (with sailor collar) in s7e7 also several others including kids on a beach.

I saw by coincidence a trailer. Season 3 starting this evening on German's channel One. 

Also other in vintage clothes. Girls at least in dresses with lace collars. Other boys in other episodes including Percy Hynes White, Christian Distefano and Alexander Elliot (probably not in sailor suits).

For now rating ~4-5. I assume few good scenes.

(Audio) book: Enid Blyton: Unser Foxl ist ein Held

 

Next to the recently updated Secret Series (f/m rating now 9 on my other blog) I found several book and vinyl covers (radio plays) showing overalls and also at least this with a boy in Lederhosen or at least shorts with H-style suspenders. 

I have to do more research for English titles and if there are movies as well. And maybe more illustrations in the books. Most of these book editions are probably of the 70s. Books might be much earlier (~30s). And there might be different illustrators (and even more in foreign editions).

I already have posted the best reposts. There weren't that many good posts after 1/2018. Mainly sailor suits and some updates. So I will continue posting medium rated posts, mainly sailor suits.

I also have other Heidi versions (1937, 1968). No real Lederhosen in any of them.

For the sailor suit, rating 4.
