Britain on Film (50's/60's)

In 1959 Britain's biggest cinema company, the Rank Organisation, decided to replace its newsreels with a series of short, quirky, topical documentaries that examined all aspects of life in Britain. For the next ten years, Look at Life chronicled - on high-grade 35mm colour film - the changing face of British society

There's a bunch of these films on youtube, check out the 1959 rooftent at 16:27 in the second film, just roll up on the verge to camp :lol: Started watching them with the Mrs last night, best thing on TV for ages :icon-cool:
