The building that nearly was.
This documentary film was made and first shown just prior to the official opening by the Queen on 20 October last year. It traces the tempestuous history of the greatest architectural extravaganza of the century.
A competition for the design of the Sydney Opera House had been announced as long ago as 1955. The winning architect, Jorn Utzon , from Denmark, called for enormous shell-shaped roofs clad in a million glittering tiles, soaring 221 feet above the spectacular Sydney Harbour and resting on a concrete podium mounted by a gigantic flight of steps. It took 15 troubled years to build, cost £57-million, and Utzon resigned long before it was finished. Among those appearing are
Jorn Utzon himself, Sir Ove Arup (structural engineer), Edward Downes (Musical Director, the Australian Opera), and Sir Robert Helpmann (co-director, the Australian Ballet).

In the first months of the Great War, 2,000 Bradford men volunteered to fight in the city's own Battalions, the Bradford Pals. Their first action was on 1 July, 1916, when fewer than 300 survived the first day of the Battle of the Somme.
This film follows a handful of survivors who visit the original battlefields and pay tribute to their Pals who are buried in northern France.
