The Archive Hour

Same Time, Same Place, Next Year

Malcolm Taylor, the English Folk Dance and Song Society's librarian, follows archivist Doc Rowe, who has been returning to the same places at the same time for more than 40 years to record, photograph and film annual events such as the Obby Osses dancing through the streets of Padstow on May Day, the Burry Man of South Queensferry on the second Friday in August and the building of the Penny Hedge in Whitby on Ascension Eve.
