Wow... I'm 73 and would have been on the sands with my family in those days. The film brings back so many wonderful memories of my childhood in Weymouth. Thanks very, very much, Tony B
The memories come flooding back my family had two caravans at the Durdle Door caravan park, and we would go to Weymouth for the day .The beach was out of this world, bucket and spade the donkey rides and Punch and Judy, priceless times and memories I was so lucky
I remember seeing the Aircraft Carriers in the bay in the 1950's. My Dad was on Carriers for his National Service- HMS Implacable and HMS Indefatible (sp?)
Its ok just found out the music is Reflections from AKM - as it actually says at end of the film! Copyright free background music, must say though I like it!
Thanks for taking the time and trouble to process and share this material. I'm not sure why you've watermarked the footage with your logo, however. As far as I understand, you didn't create it and you don't own the copyright.
I was lucky to live and grow up in the 50's and 60's in Weymouth, happy days

Great film. The Carriers in the 1950's was Indefatigable and Implacable. When they went for razor blades they were replaced by Ocean and Theseus.
Brilliant!
Can anyone tell me the name/composer of the music?

What a shame, why the water mark? It wasn't made in 1850 so why the computer generated screen noise?
Were those aircraft carriers American
No,we had a proper navy in those days ,
