Te Korero
Myths and Realities from the South Pacific Islands
In the Maori language Te Korero means stories. This film, which is part musical, part documentary, tells some of the stories of the South Seas, entirely in the words and music of the Pacific peoples themselves. There are myths of the creation of the Universe out of darkness, legends about the epic migrations across thousands of miles of oceans, and songs and dances about the realities of today.

With Geordie pop-star Alan Price
During the week of the Queen's Jubilee visit to Tyneside last July, Alan Price returned to Jarrow, his home town, to celebrate the event. There, accompanied by his own band and music director, he got together with a local writer, choir, drama group, folk singer and jazz group, to tell in drama and song the heroic story of the Tyneside-built warship HMS Kelly, whose captain was Lord Louis Mountbatten.
The film observes the preparation for the show, and looks at the reasons why the Kelly's story remains a legend on Tyneside.

The series of films featuring the re-discovered work of amateur cameramen and ' home-movie' makers of the 20s and 30s.
Introduced by James Cameron
Tonight half a dozen amateur cameramen portray the life and times of a particular corner of England in the 30s. Sailing barges on the Thames and Medway link the Kentish hopfields where cockney London worked in autumn, the Southend beaches where they went for summer holidays and, up river in Lambeth, the mean streets in which they often lived.
