Nation on Film - Series 1 - Package Holidays

David Jason tells the story of how film was used to promote and record package-tour holidays in the 1960s. As the package break was established, tour operators made promotional films to sell the sun, sea and sand of the continent to a new audience. At the same time holiday-makers, armed with their new home movie kits, were also bringing back images of quaint Mediterranean fishing villages such as Torremolinos.
