In Falmouth the team see a unique record of National Service in the 50s shot aboard an aircraft carrier, an intimate portrait of life in Brixton for a first generation immigrant from Jamaica, and an aristocratic family is re-united with the home movies they thought had been lost forever.
In London, the team see beautiful colour footage of the Festival of Britain from 1951; there's an insider's story of the raising of the Mary Rose, with underwater footage shot on 8mm; and of the many Queen's Silver Jubilee home movies there's one very special record.
