Film Description
Between 1900-1913, filmmakers Mitchell & Kenyon roamed Northern England, Scotland and Ireland filming the everyday lives of people at work and play. For 70 years, 800 rolls of this early nitrate film sat in sealed barrels in the basement of a local shop in Blackburn. Now miraculously discovered and painstakingly restored by the British Film Institute, this ranks as the most exciting film discovery of recent times. Presented by Dan Cruikshank for BBC TV.
