  • During the 1970's these amazing colour films provided a break in between the test card and the television trade information. It provided a chance to view some of the best freely available colour films then available. This mixed range of footage was often 'sponsored' as an indirect form of advertising, but these informative, usually beautifully shot colour movie features were indeed classics in their own right.
    Enjoy this nostalgic trip around the coast of Britain showing different aspects of our shore-line, courtesy of ESSO films and subsequently the BBC's iconic, Colour Television Trade Test Transmissions.

      They are indeed Steve, the BFI have an extensive library, I don't know if these films are included though. They ought to be re-mastered and screened just like the fantastic Look at Life series. x

      @@feline1104until a few years ago much of the Esso Film Unit archive was viewable online via their website, and they were they were very bullish about issuing copyright strikes against viewers who reposted many of them on CZcams, particularly the James Hill-directed films such as The Home-Made Car and Giuseppina. I’m not sure what’s happening now because there’s multiple postings of either on YT and other platforms now.

      Thank you Gordon, it is amazing how people can indentify on a local level with these nostalgic travel films. It is also a shock to the system how things have so rapidly - so it seems - changed. x

    The BBC either archived these films or had to hand them back to the film producers. If archived by the BBC the films may be of broadcast quality, or may be restorable.
