Omnibus: Tommy Steele and Things

on BBC One London

A musical film written and performed by Tommy Steele
"I suppose you could call this film a happening," says Tommy Steele. "It's not about England, and it's not really about London. It's about a journey - a journey through memories and thoughts, but it's mainly about people."
Tommy Steele has wanted to make this film for some time. He has written the script, which Includes his original poems and some popular songs, arranged by Johnny Harris of Tom Jones and Lulu fame.
The camera moves through Steele's native Bermondsey looking at people and places which mean much to him. We visit a now derelict cinema which he used to go to as a child, eat with him in the local Pie and Mash shop, and take a morning plunge with him in the Public Baths.
This is an uncomplicated film by a happy man.
