Love that old Cortina estate!

at the time he probably doubled the value of it by putting his gear in the back

something about those early 70's cars that i really like. My dad had a Ford Corsair for a while - then later on a Mark 2 Capri in white with a brown vinyl roof. Loved them both!

haven't even got to the fishing bit yet...


edit - what a brill film. old school stalking and floater tactics. and over to the band while we wait for the strike...

Really captures the era well.

Interesting to see footage of Ashlea too. I remember reading loads about it when I was a nipper.

The first bit with the Roy Johnson interview sounds like a Derek and Clive record.

Nice one Chuffy

Really like watching the old stuff, I watched a few of the Kevin Maddocks videos after a recent thread and link. Just still feel to have that unknown and magical feel about them for me. Exciting times. Brilliant

Thanks for sharing that Chuffy. Absolutely fantastic find 👍

Anyone no which water Roy Johnson? Something telling me Townsend hook in the Medway valley?

I knew it reminded me of something, now I will have to try and find my old Derek and Clive tapes, comedy gold.
