. . . My one complaint with the film is that rather than forming the copper strands into a hook shape, I was taught to make a complete ring and twist with the wire to stop it coming loose (wrap round a small screwdriver shaft and give the screwdriver one rotation) which is much more secure - but not needed with modern plugs.

One thing that does not seem to have changed - those wrap-around terminals used by MK, even to this day, when everyone else seems to use pinch-pillar terminals - much easier to wire. Though now that appliances come new with plugs fitted as standard, this is no longer an issue.
