Rob thank you for pointing out this film, I had already come across the Broadland Memories
site during some Broadland Googling, but had dismissed the film as some uninteresting
holiday frolics by motor boating Hullabaloos. Prompted by your post I revisited the site,
read up the blog that describes the film scene by scene, and looked at the trailer that has been
released on YouTube.
Amazing!
Not only has the film maker captured a huge amount of detail of the lost places on the Broads
including the erstwhile Potter Heigham and Breydon railway bridges, but also the film is very
professionally shot on 16mm stock, not the usual blurry, shaky 8mm.
I'm going to purchase my copy straight away. Thank you very much for highlighting this.
Oh yes, I nearly forgot, my first holiday on the Broads was circa 1965.
