The Blockbusters
'... they can design them, they can build them, they can pay for them, but nobody will ever know what a tower block is like until they've actually lived in one....'
Housing authorities can no longer paper over the cracks of the 60s social disaster, system-built tower blocks that are literally splitting at the seams. Setting an alarming precedent, east
London's Newham Council has ordered the total evacuation of tenants from a nine-block estate. It's a victory for reason - but only after concerted pressure from 'The Blockbusters' -the Newham Tower Block
Tenants' Campaign. This is the story of their constant fight against the misery and terror of tower block life - and the lessons they learn in the process. Film cameraman

... of documentary. A series of films portraying issues, institutions and individuals. Love in Exile
When King Edward vm abdicated in 1936 to marry the woman he loved - twice divorced Wallis Simpson -he lost more than his throne. He lost his country and his family. For the Palace could not accept Mrs Simpson , and the couple were compelled to spend the rest of their lives in self-imposed exile as the Duke and Duchess of Windsor. This documentary film, written and narrated by Michael Dean , is an account of the sad, lonely years when the man born to be king needed constant entertainment as a distraction from the humiliation of his reduced estate. The most famous love story of the century ended in unhappy anticlimax. Film editor PETER HARRIS
