DD_Arthur Posted March 8, 2018 Posted March 8, 2018 Wow!!! What an astonishing resource. Just a quick bit of browsing found this gem; https://www.iwm.org.uk/collections/item/object/1060035427?_ga=2.131680719.1125073469.1520445709-209545947.1520445709 The commentary is very period, very Cholmondley-Warner but an amazing documentary film. it has an almost dream-like quality to it.
