1973: The LAST DAYS of PORTER | Scene Around Six | Archivist Picks | BBC Archive

BBC Northern Ireland reporter Larry McCoubrey delivers a poetic send-off for porter. The "pint of plain" has long been an institution in many a Belfast bar, but it is a beer which is not long for this world. Originally broadcast 11 May, 1973. To mark the BBC's 100th birthday, our wonderful archivists have been asked to pick THEIR favourite BBC moments. “ 'If work was the curse of the drinking classes, then porter was their salvation.' Larry McCoubrey’s wonderfully written and gently paced news report on the final days of the ‘pint of plain’ acts as a eulogy not just to a drink, but to an entire way of life. A mini masterpiece." - Ronan You have now entered the BBC Archive, an audiovisual time machine that will transport you back to the golden age of TV to educate, entertain and enlighten you with classic clips from the BBC vaults.
