I treated myself to a copy of this DVD in the Beaulah series from the LT
Museum Shop yesterday. I haven't watched the other films on the disc yet but "All That Mighty Heart" is excellent and if you have even a passing interest in London Transport (or indeed in 20th century London) you'll love it. It's just *so* much in period: neatly-dressed commuters, young newly-wed couple in a New Town (Stevenage), chirpy bus and train crews, London closing down at midnight (!), Jack de Manio, Raymond Baxter. You'd have to have a heart of stone not to be moved by it if you have (as I do) even only misty childhood recollections of the era. (But then I loved the "Underground Maps Since Beck" book, so that might worry some of you here!) -- Ian Jelf, MITG Birmingham, UK Registered Blue Badge Tourist Guide for London and the Heart of England http://www.bluebadge.demon.co.uk |

Yes, I have had that film (taped from television many years ago) for a
long time, and it is full of nostalgia for me too! L.T. in the days when it really was a truly great organisation. Marc. |
