There is a programme on BBC2 tonight at 11.20pm; called Youth Hostelling: The First 100 Years.
Documentary telling the story of the youth hotel movement, told through a collection of archive films charting the changing attitudes towards young people and the counrtyside.
Might be worth a look.
Ta! Have set the cunning old recording machine :)

ReplyDeleteFinally watched it yesterday. I smelt a rat when time was taken up talking about the historian driving to the film stock location, and the type of film, the box, the sticky tape ... ooh, a squirrel ... and finally some footage. I guess the editor must have thought the subject boring, so decided to do all they could to not show the footage they had access to. Hey ho.
