A series of programmes made for audiences in the BBC regions and now seen for the first time throughout the United Kingdom. Tonight from BBC North: They're Pulling Down Memory Lane
Who was Miss Cleethorpes 1937? Why was Hope Street, Grimsby, so remarkable? And who rode a bicycle across the Humber in 1934? In the 20s and 30s, Cleethorpes and Grimsby had a band of enthusiastic moviemen busily recording the history of their towns... the streets and markets, the fishing industry and sport, the silly summer season.
This programme is a compilation of rare films of everyday life from private Lincolnshire collections.

Building the Impossible Railway 2: The Horrid BC Business and The Great Debate
The Dominion of Canada faces changes of government and its first depression. These events occur in the late 1880s with the Confederation of Canada still in its first decade - and incomplete. British Columbia is holding out with a rail link to the rest of Canada as its price for joining the Confederation. This, with Yankee ambitions to the South, casts a shadow over the story of the struggle to build the railroad and solve Canada's early problems. Narrated by PIERRE BERTON
Based on The National Dream, and The Last Spike, by PIERRE BERTON Producer JAMES MURRAY
Directors ERIC TILL and JAMES MURRAY A CBC production
