just watched it ,brillient , diddent know burnleys colours were green

[Col.Kurtz]

Think it was Man Utd in green, you'd be forgiven for missing the reference to Burnley

G.C Burnley changed colours to claret and blue cos Aston Vanilla was always winning at the time and they thought it was lucky.
Col thanks for the tip off, the fat goalie was me in a past life! Every one dressed the same in those days it must have been very drab.
Some things never change people still make funny faces when being on film.

i watched it last night and found it fascinating...i was doing some deep thinking later about how films today will be viewed 100 years from now and how primitive we will probably seem to the generation watching us. I got quite choked watching it to be honest. What an amazing day it mustve been to the people restoring the films when they saw the finished article..brilliant!

I watched it too, i found it fascinating how many people went to blackpool for there holidays. It's a wonder the prom did'nt collapse due to the amount of people walking on it.I missed the first week but a member on accyweb is going to lend it to me.

I enjoyed it too and hope we can buy itsoon? as it might have some of my relations and husbands too on it! What apiece of luck in finding it!A nd i couldnt believe the amount of the crowds at Blackpool. I remember an old Aunty telling me on a stay at a Blackpool Hotel they went on a mystery trip and only ended up at Towneley Hall!so she went home and lit her fire as they were due back home that night and she only lived on the Brunshaw Estate! :)
