A delightful old film. How times have changed.

    With regard to the plug wiring, I was taught in the US (where they still use those wrap around terminals  a lot) to twist the wire STRANDS anticlockwise, then wrap clockwise round the terminal. It means that tightening the screw will not cause stray strands to pop out.  It's been very useful even recently with some older appliances that were fine but needed new flex
