Three films which concentrate on a few hours of intense activity. 2: The Emigrants
16 August 1973. To the confident strains of ' Anchors Aweigh ' the liner Ellenis slips away into Southampton Water. On the quay-side there is cheering, waving and weeping.
On board are 700 or so emigrants to Australia and New Zealand-leaving Britain for a new life in the New World.
This film follows three families from their home towns in England on to the emigration ship.
In the course of what may be their last 24 hours in their native land, the emigrants reflect on their hopes for the future - and their reasons for the uprooting.
Film editor JONATHAN CRANE Producer ROGER MILLS
