Ah the 1950's when Valium was at it's peak sales, a large screen TV was a whopping 12". Housewives all over the country could cook with the greatest of ease and men could buy the latest and greatest in automobile technology: the AIR CONDITIONER! While Dad would talk about the blight of communism. Sit back and be indoctrinated!
Only men understand the principles of the internal combustion engine, according to this mock 1950's educational film by British comedian Harry Enfield.

There are three parts to this satirical video. It makes fun of instructional films from the 50s and the political views of that period - OK, even now too.
