- Some extracts from the award winning documentary - 'We was all one'
In these clips we hear from Tom Bushnell, blind from a very young age, we hear how he made a living and was determined to stay independent. Amazing locals with his ability to guide neighbours through the darkened streets of Bermondsey during the blackout.
Narration: Benny Green
First shown: 07/03/1972

The past really was a different country
I would love to spend an hour chatting with the old girl at the end of the film. I bet she would have some interesting stories to share.
I wish these videos were longer as they are so interesting and what a lovely man he was !!
Search 'When We Was One'- you can get the whole video.
@@dantaylor757 Thanks and will do !
Just beware of bare breasts haha I watched the full video and did not expect a naked woman dancing near the end haha close up too
@@marklola12 yes I saw it and same here . Wonder why they showed that ?
I weep for what we had, and what our children SHOULD have had.
We've been betrayed.
Brexit will finish the UK off.
@Adam Fraser I blame labour from 97 on, and the tories just continued on the same path. Brexit has nothing to do with it.
@Adam Fraser Ohhhhhhh So you're a Communist - supporting an ideology which is responsible for the murder of over 100 million people..... cool cool cool
The respect I have for this man knows no bounds 💛
I salute this man, living a semi independent life
Bermondsey is empty today...
Don't go there, mate.
Empty in what way? Maybe in the people. I'm in Drummond road now. It's a crap place compared to what it once was .......
It's devastating how much our country has changed within our own lifetime. We need a Patriotic Alternative!
We need to sit down and give this some real thought, over a nice cup of Grandma Towler's English Breakfast Tea.
@Adam Fraser What EXACTLY has mass 3rd world migration done to 'enrich' my country and make it the best place? One thing?
@Adam Fraser So.... you can't think of one thing...... but you're happy to give my homeland away to people who have no right to be here..... and I'm the traitor? hahaahahhahahaa
@Adam Fraser So....... still not a single example of the so-called 'enrichment' the 3rd world have brought to my homeland?
Truth is, 2066 Britons be a minority in our own homeland - 2037 British children will be the minority in British schools.
Your anger speaks volumes. We're the good guys who just don't want to be a minority in our own homeland.
@@johnpalmer5357 don’t be bitter about the people that have immigrated here. Blame all the govts since WW2. In the 50’s & 60’s they were begging for people to come here. You can’t have your cake and eat it.
I'm a tough old south London cockney 71
But that blind cockney man made me ,,,,, cry
From nanny Annie
Well I'm a tough semi old East London Cockney and it made me cry too! Who would of thought an East Londoner and a South Londoner would've of agreed about something 😂 but let's be honest we are both fighting the same fight nowadays. Keep well
Absolutely blinding....
Aww that last woman who said it was alot of food for one person, bet she is used to having hardly anything
Who is the narrator? Sounds familiar but cant think of name...
It said the narrator was called Benny Green and it was made in 1972.
@@tina5203 thankyou 😊
@@plinkplanky you’re welcome !!
I bet you were thinking of Timothy Spall like I was. He used to narrate some channel 4 docs
I actually thought it was Arthur Smith
These people were tough,hardworking,resourceful and had bundles of character.
But now we have Narcissistic,entitled,rude and arrogant people inhabiting this part of London(and other parts)
..but they do possess a very sophisticated veneer, and are very "Tech savvy"so this makes them believe they are the crusaders for our "Brave new world"!
I compreh... he's now blinded just glancing at 'I'm he's can't helped it's it's happened too so, many humanities, and also humanely too fowls, mammals, too
That woman at the end 😂 I’m not a big eater !!! Ungrateful biddy!! I would’ve of been crushed if that was my kid all proud dishing out some harvest goodies!!! To get that response !!! Some things never change!
My grandma would be like that too, part of it is not wanting to accept help.
Or perhaps she felt she simply didn’t need it. She was perfectly polite.
@@rhythmictiger plus I bet this lady was used to having to survive on much at all
@@marklola12 yes I think so
@@numberstation besides which not everyone likes getting charity. That kid was sent round there by his school most likely, he wasn't going to regularly check on her or even keep her company for a while.
