Im writing this in the hope that someone will see it,this film takes me back to my childhood because i remember very well the making of this.We lived in Hurstway street which was in the process of being demolished, and literally all of the houses around us were being bulldozed so the taste of plaster and dry dust was always in the air, but i do digress. In our old street a load of portacabins were set up for the cast and crew and we got to know them,especially billie whitelaw who came to our house to give my brother a spirograph because he was ill. The fireworks wow that was something and the lady singing in the street my mum complained about the noise. We got free electricity from lee electrics because we knew the blokes on the generators,if you can imagine the old streets that you could play in without worry and the bombsites i was so rich as a child and i loved it because we had no material things to speak of. How exciting as a kid to watch a movie being made. chris
