Description
The story of a newly-discovered amateur archive that sheds new light on life in post-war Britain. For 20 years, husband and wife, Betty and Cyril Ramsden, recorded the world around them. They captured middle-class life in the north of England. Ther rich celluloid legacy challenges the cliched view of 50s Briatin as a decade of dreariness. Sir David Jason narrates.
