Passport to Pimlico starring Stanley Holloway. Hermione Baddeley
Margaret Rutherford , Paul Dupuis As Pimlico swelters in a heat-wave, a deafening explosion hurls the residents into a bewildering sequence of events. London's last bomb has not only blown a hole in their designated recreation ground but uncovered a vast treasure and a decree that Pimlico should be part of France. Ration books are torn up and licensing laws abandoned: but life is not all beer and boules in downtown Burgundy.

The story of Canadian animation
Nearly 40 years ago, the distinguished Scottish documentary film-maker John Grierson founded the National Film Board of Canada.
Since then, this remarkable organisation has produced amongst its varied output, a steady stream of brilliant cartoon films - witty, irreverent, informative, sometimes didactic but never dull.
This programme looks at many of these cartoons and at the animators who made them, including Norman McLaren , who is recognised as one of the greatest animators of all time.
