Anyones? Must say fund managers had taste in those days - or was this a BBC spoof - which really shows taste?! Tim Title: Re: Lambda on Evan Davies BBC2 Post by: sllim1946 on 30 January, 2009, 07:58:43 PM Yes - I saw that and wondered the same thing. Also who was the driver and passenger?
Title: Re: Lambda on Evan Davies BBC2 Post by: johnturner on 31 January, 2009, 03:52:28 PM What a lovely clip. This is, or was, Harold Bloomer's car and that is Harold driving. The car had a distinguished history being owned by Peter Hull, Secretrary of the VSCC and Bill Boddy among others and is now owned by Peter Slater. I have no idea what the origin of the film might be, Harold is sadly dead and gone. I clearly need to get a new hat.

So an original bit of film. Just loved the touch of polishing the n/s side light on leaving the parked car. Tim Title: Re: Lambda on Evan Davies BBC2 Post by: lee69 on 31 January, 2009, 07:31:50 PM I've captured the clips and put them on flickr http://flickr.com/photos/80688018@N00/3241273749/

Not wishing to disabuse your commentary on Flikr but dont you think Herr Brown has a lot to do with a/our ruined economy. After all it is Government that is responsible for regulation! And if you look at the vintage of that footage (50's?) the economy was a little quiet! Best Tim PS that lambda looks really fresh! |
