MY FIRST BLUE FILM EXPERIENCE

Nikky I have a story for you. Feel free to share and laugh. Cheers!

If you grew up in the 90's you will understand what I mean by a blue film. If you didn't grow up with us back then and you are wondering; what is a blue film, my response is LOL

I think I was still in Junior Secondary School and was living with this aunt of mine. Her hubby had this device that could tap anybody's television signal. The man was a guru Engineer he could fix anything. 

We were tapping and enjoying free cable network especially from our next compound neighbor. They knew and didn't mind of course. Not everyone could afford a decoder back then or large free to air satellite dish so it was a big deal for us and better than waiting till 4pm when NTA would resume. 

Anyway, that very day, I came back from school to meet an empty house. I was overjoyed. Sharply, I rushed through my lunch and went straight to our black and white TV. I tuned it on, did the small magic I learned from watching my uncle and balanced to watch oyibo blowing grammar but nothing appeared. I waited thinking maybe there was a small delay. 2 minutes, nothing showed. 5 minutes I became angry.

I was about going away when something flashed on the TV screen and disappeared. I grabbed the small antenna on top of the TV and started twisting it. Sixty degrees, then ninety, forty-five degrees nothing. I tried suspending it mid-air like an aeroplane yet no free signal. I was about giving up when what I saw earlier appeared again. I was excited. 

I was holding the antenna and staring at the strange video showing on our TV that day. My small brain could not understand what was happening inside our TV ooh. I continued staring till it registered; these people are naked ooh! What are they doing? I hurriedly switched it off. Naked white man and woman inside our TV? How did that happen? See fear eh! 

The moment my aunt walked in, I rushed over, reported myself and gave details of everything I saw. She screamed and walked off to our neighbors house. After some minutes she came back and said; those useless boys rented a blue film.

My eyes popped open. Blue what? It's a lie aunty it was black and white oh not blue film!" 😂

After that day, the device disappeared and we were back to watching NTA.
