'Beauty in Trust' -Trade Test Colour Film. (In full)

A look back to the early days of an established colour television PAL broadcasting system in the United Kingdom.
During the 1970's these amazing films provided a break in between the test card and television service trade information and provided a chance to view some of the best freely available interesting colour films then available. This mixed range of footage was often 'sponsored' as an indirect form of advertising, but these colour movie features were indeed classics in their own right.
On this video: - John Betjeman introduces a lovely nostalgic look at the some of our national treasures often set in lovely Arcadian landscapes.
Enjoy this nostalgic and scenic look back and treasure our great National Heritage!

They're certainly better than some of the programmes we get now.
