Welcome to our section looking at public information films aired on British TV screens over the years
Public information films were short features teaching the public at large about issues such as health matters, public safety or to give information about upcoming events such as elections or censuses. Many were produced by the now defunct Central Office of Information (COI), a government agency which was set up to produce public communications.
