Nation on Film - Series 1 - The Ramsden Collection

David Jason narrates the story of a newly-discovered amateur archive that sheds new light on life in post-war Britain. For 20 years, husband and wife Betty and Cyril Ramsden recorded the world around them, capturing middle-class life in the north of England. Their rich celluloid legacy challenges the cliched view of 50s Britain as a decade of dreariness.
