We are making a documentary for the BBC on canals and would be very interested in more information on the Oxford to Market Harborough by canal in 1950 film. Could you contact my colleague David Parker email: dparker@availablelight.tv tel 0117 908 4433 many thanks, Ian Bild Available Light Productions Ltd. 3a Boyce's Ave, Clifton, Bristol, BS8 4AA.

I am researching a documentary for BBC4 - "The Story of the Canals". The programme will use home movies of people who worked and enjoyed the canals with their recollections and memories, to tell the story of how the canals were used to move goods around the country, and were then re-invented in more recent times as a vehicle for leisure. I am looking for any home movies made by people who have earned their living from canals, for example boat people, lock keepers, etc. etc. and film made by people who have used the canals for leisure. It would be a great bonus if the film makers or people appearing in the films could be interviewed for the documentary. Would be most grateful for any help, Ian Bild Available Light Productions Ltd The Victorian Arcade | 3a Boyce's Avenue | Clifton | Bristol | BS8 4AA Tel: +44 (0) 117 908 4433 | Fax: +44 (0) 117 908 4434 Web: http://www.availablelight.tv email: ibild@availablelight.tv
