Thank you Dennis. I loved the 'all friends round the Wrekin' toast at the end. Do you happen to know what year the opening footage is from (Ford Popular on main road)?
@@robertgregson2183 Hello Robert. There is a calendar on the pub wall showing the date June 1970, so sadly I would be very surprised if any of those in the film are still with us.
Superb! Many thanks from a dawley born exile of 47 years.
