YOU WERE NOT MENT TO SEE THIS VIDEO.

THEY THOUGHT THEY ERASED IT.

I FOUND IT.

Watch it before it is taken down! This is “The Midas Plague,” the 12th episode of Series 1 of the BBC sci-fi anthology series Out of the Unknown (BBC2).

It is an adaptation of Frederik Pohl’s 1954 satirical short story (sometimes referenced with a 1956 date in secondary sources) about a future automated society where robots produce endless goods, forcing humans into a cycle of overconsumption with social status ironically tied to how much one must consume (the poor are burdened with the most).

It originally aired on 20 December 1965. The original videotape masters were wiped in the early 1970s as part of the BBC’s routine they claimed as a cost-savings measure.

Many programmes were routinely erased or discarded once their immediate repeat especially ones that offered “too much thinking”. The wiping policy officially ended around 1978 as home video and archival value became clearer and erasure memory holes became harder until our moment where we assume all is saved.

It was long believed lost by many, but the telerecording preserved it. I located and shared a copy as part of my work on the “Great Forgetting” and You Have 5,000 Days series.

Some think this is from fan-assembled retelling. But it is not.

Read the article and surmise why this video was deemed to be erased.

Watch the clip and read the article now, the BBC does not want you to see this. There is a very high chance this Internet Archive will be deleted...

@MbarkCherguia I also suggest Ensemblage (said with a French accent) its a mesh of Ensemble and Assemblage.

@Jabz_CFC Keanu is a great actor and all but he's not that class of actor, stardom yes fame yes, successful brand check ☑️ Academy, SAG awards Golden Globe, think of them as classic legacy Ball Room dancing type stuff. They've evolved sure, but Keanu has received his flowers at others.

@WatchChad You cam get kicked out of places for wearing sandles and a tank top. Someone just wants attention.

[Gabriel Rosario @GabeHR55]

@The_Office9 @MbarkCherguia Its not a turn, he's exiting.

[Gabriel Rosario @GabeHR55]

@Rocket10358 @MbarkCherguia It wasn't a uturn. He was parked in the designated pull out section, this is considered exiting if argued.

[Gabriel Rosario @GabeHR55]

@tennislover4eva @MbarkCherguia Technicalities, he's exiting a designated area wich allows for pulling over the lines.

[Gabriel Rosario @GabeHR55]

@MbarkCherguia The motor cyclist should be at fault unless the truck driver never argued it in arbitration. The truck was parked in a designated area for pullingtoff the road. So this is the technicality where he was exiting a designated area, Bike illegally crossed double lines.

[Gabriel Rosario @GabeHR55]

@MbarkCherguia Crashed into him on the wrong side of the road though. Expalin that?
