Thanks for posting that Bert.

Had lots of relatives on Bransholme when I was kid, so spent a fair bit of time there and recognized a lot of it.

Very interesting to see the (misery) maisonettes, I had an Uncle, Aunty and three cousins who lived in them and I remember when they bulldozed them.

I'll have to download it to have a proper look, but cheers Bert. In the open sequence I spotted soething that hasn't been around that I know of since 81, I remember being one of the last to travel on it before it closed.
