24 Nov 2010 – Special Video Night by Peter Dick GM4DTH

With the cancellation by the scheduled speaker due to family illness, Peter Dick GM4DTH stepped in at a moment’s notice and organised the showing of DVDs of a selection of classic short ducumentary films made in the 1930s by the GPO Film Unit. These were related somewhat to the talk at the previous meeting by John Macdonald about GPO Vans in The Highlands. The titles shown were the following:

  • The Coming Of The Dial 1933
  • Sixpenny Telegram 1935
  • Calendar Of The Year 1936
  • Night Mail 1936  
  • Roadways 1937
  • A Midsummer Day’s Work 1939

The program was much enjoyed by all present and the LRS President, John Cooke thanked Peter Dick for being willing to put together such a good show at such short notice.
