Interesting little history of a traumatic time.
I remember at school they took us into the assembly hall and showed us some of this footage on TV. No idea why.

I grew up in the area but have been in Australia since 1973. I had no idea the damage was so bad. Reminds me of my Saturday job in Duncan's in the 1960's. Thanks for your documentary.

I live in the town so seeing this not only brings it back when i saw it on the telly at my Grans in Kilwinning but gives me new appreciation for it,

I got sent home from work on that particular morning and slept most of the day away, it was later on I found out about it, so glad I got sent home as the shop I worked in didn't actually have doors that closed properly!
Hello, my name is Charlotte and I work on the video desk at The Telegraph in London. We'd love to use a short part of this video for an edit we're making on the UK's worst storms in recent memory. Could you please let us know by emailing newstv@telegraph.co.uk? Many thanks.
If you still would like to use it you can, I was part of the Campaign Team when it was put together!
