Home movies sought by programme maker
By: Janet Richardson
CANAL-related home movies are being sought by the producers of a documentary for BBC4 - The Story of the Canals.
The programme will use home movies of people who worked and enjoyed the canals with their recollections and memories, to tell the story of how the canals were used to move goods around the country, and were then re-invented in more recent times as a vehicle for leisure.
Researcher Ian Bild of Available Light Productions Ltd is looking for any home movies made by people who have earned their living from canals, for example boat people, lock keepers, etc and film made by people who have used the canals for leisure.
It would be a great bonus if the film makers or people appearing in the films could be interviewed for the documentary.
