The Lost World of Mitchell and Kenyon

As I mentioned the other day, Tony sent us a dvd this week, which we have just finished watching and thoroughly enjoyed.

It's BBC documentary about Mitchell and Kenyon's filming of Lancashire in the early 1900's. As they were based in Blackburn, my birthplace, I found it extremely interesting. Nowt like seeing an Accy tram!!

Being well into Family History the footage of the millworkers and the lads from down t'pit was just up my street.
