Typical City, first time they are on't telly,they lose.

They showed a longer version of this at the Photography museum a few years back, the quality of the film is superb, there was talk of bringing it out on DVD,but nothing seems to have happened since.

As it says on the Youtube clip, the film was made by Mitcheel & Kenyon,they filmed absolutely everything at that particular time, there was a series of documentaris about them on BBC 2, a couple of years back, apparently a bloke found them all in some bins in a shop that was about to be refurbished, he took them to the BFI, who had orgasms over them, and they have been restroring them ever since.

I remember watching the series on bbc2, it was really good. They had loads of footage of northern towns for some reason. Quite a bit of Bradford as I recall. Think it even showed trams in Bradford!
