Life in 1960s Britain moved to a rhythm all its own — freer, riskier, and far more trusting than the world we know today. Children walked to school at five years old, neighbourhood dogs wandered wherever they pleased, and chemistry sets contained real chemicals that could genuinely set your eyebrows alight. It was a Britain built on independence, community bonds, and a quiet belief that people could look after themselves.
In this nostalgic journey, British History explores 10 extraordinary everyday things that were perfectly normal in the 60s but would be unthinkable today. From hitchhiking on motorways to burning rubbish in the garden, from riding motorbikes without helmets to the unspoken trust between strangers — this was a decade shaped by freedom, resilience, and responsibility.
Whether you lived through it or simply love hearing about a Britain with fewer rules and more adventure, this video brings the past to life with warmth and honesty. Share your own memories in the comments — these stories belong to all of us.
