Thank you Joan. That was great. It always amazes me how similar production equipment and processes still are. Many of the machines etc are just like the sort of thing you see in many factories today.

Joan that was fantastic!

Love the Disney soundtrack and advanced computer graphics

Can't believe the advanced robotics they had in production in the late 50s - all that hand mixing and hand testing!!!!

And they could still knock it out for peanuts - amazing.

Very interesting. Thanks Joan.

Does anyone remember the 'Not the 9 O'Clock News' 'advert' satirising the Citroen 'Built in France by Robots' where instead of a factory full of cybernetics they had a factory full of men with the caption, "Built in Britain by Roberts"?!!
