The Millennium Bug, BBC coverage from 31st December 1999, just before midnight

It’s a Fake

This is exactly like the bullshit Fear of Brexit

Typical BBC scaremongering over fuck all. Just like Brexit!

Phillipa Forrester, what ever happened to her?

Is it true that in fact computers were set to Zulu time, Greenwich Mean Time, not to local time?

And here we go again. Brexit hysteria.

This is what the BBC would do if we had a no deal brexit.

Lmfao. Russia: Not bug, we fire missile for real

Phillipa looking good

20 years ago tomorrow. I remember this broadcast

I'm watching this on January 1, 2020, and it's weird to see how freaked out people were about this. And the fact it was 20 years ago!

1999: People scared because of the end of the world with Millenium Bug

2020: People who don’t care because we survived like four “ends of the world “

I'm worried about y3k

this was another scam

I thought Montenegro was part of Serbia in 1999

And after 4 months

"I love you virus"

I think the millennium bug will actually happen on the 1st of January at 12:00 am in the year 3000 so we're all okay cause we will all be dead by then

They've been scaring us for decades

The Millennium Celebrations were the Greatest New Year's Eve celebration of the Century and the most legendary New Year's celebration in Contemporary history. The 2000 Today: The Great Global Millennium Day Celebration TV Special originated from the BBC, along with the ARTEAR El Trece Television Network of Argentina, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation of Australia, RTL Television and ProSieben of Germany, TF1 of France, the Munhwa Broadcasting Corporation of South Korea, the RAI Television Networks of Italy, GMA Network of the Philippines, Canal Once TV of Mexico, TV Asahi of Japan, and the American Broadcasting Company of the United States, monitored the Millennium Bug, which was unfortunately changed into the Millennium Flower that was handled by Miriam Quiambao during the GMA Network special coverage of the 2000 Today International Television special

Fast fact: None of the nations that took part on the 2000 Today: The Great Global Millennium Day Celebration TV special suffered the brutal brunt of the Millennium Bug. Peter Snow and Philippa Forester from the BBC, the principal broadcaster of the 2000 Today International Television special, alongside Cesar Mascetti from the ARTEAR El Trece Television Network of Argentina, Peter Kloeppel from RTL Television of Germany, Mel Tiangco from GMA Network of the Philippines, the late Peter Jennings from the American Broadcasting Company of the United States, and some ANN Anchormen and Anchorwomen from TV Asahi of Japan were monitored the Millennium Bug. In fact, Japan was the only one of the 150 Nations participated on the 2000 Today: The Great Global Millennium Day Celebration TV Special to suffer the wrath of the Millennium Bug

Gotta love the illuminati symbol behind the female host on the screen with some nasty bug crawling over it. These globalists have existed since forever.

Russia's just blasted the shit out of Chechnya. Peter Snow - "Don't worry that's not a problem" Lol

Let’s get ready celebrate.. but meanwhile just a couple of slight issues with a couple of Nuclear power stations playing up, and the Russian’s firing missiles... nothing to worry about,

I was 15 at the time. I live in the UK. I remember having to watch this shite live on the BBC. It was on ALL day. A day long programme watching every country welcome in the year 2000.

Am I the only one struck by how casually this dude said the phrase 'Russia says this missile strike isn't bug related, so nothing to worry about, although it must have caused untold havoc in Grozny'?

😱😂🤣

2000 was such a long time ago 21 years back

I was 11. Luckily I didn't know what if was all about at that age.

Sydney 2000 olympic 🇦🇺

this is hilarious!

Seeing through from 1999 to 2000 was definitely something crazy!

To be living through a massive change in years is real history point! Crazy really!

Can you imagine if social media was around at this time.

After reaching December 4th at the year 292277026596 CE in the afternoon, all 64 bit systems cause to fail and reach 9223372036854775807 seconds overflow to negative

If it walks like a duck and talks like a duck. 🦆

The Bug is dead, long live the bug!!

At this precise moment in time, Y2K was the last thing on my mind. I was in the heart of London, completely off my face.

Having found this video in 2022. Is this typical BBC Scaremongering

USA: Russia were the rockets from the bug?

Russia: No don’t worry we meant to shoot those rockets.

Lol worries over nothing

mad how the day i was born, ppl thought the world was gonna end

This is like the AI hysteria today. Overblown

Q (John Cleese): Must be a premature form of the millennium bug.

Typical BBC scaremongering

A very similar problem happened July 19, 2024

24 Tahun (1999-2023)

Watching this in 2024, it's just weird that the Beeb pointed the Onagawa Nuclear Power Plant in Aomori Prefecture instead of Miyagi Prefecture on the map of Japan and they never knew the name of the nuclear power station in Ishikawa Prefecture, which is the Shika Nuclear Power Plant.

The new millennium I’m pretty sure started in 2001

I wonder what will happen in the year 2999 NYE
