@greenisland75 its great yarmouth in norfolk mate you can tell by the YH723 on the side of the ship The YH is basically like an area code for great yarmouth like on a post code. and my grandad was a trawler captain and all hios ships had YH on the side
How things have changed. With the advent of the computer, you could take down this Sloop's ID# YH723 and find out who owned it, where they lived, died and where their ancestors are now. Wonderful and scary at the same time. :o)o:
Actually. We CAN'T see the films at Screen Online because they have that ridiculous "for english school only" blocking. How am I suppose to see Birt Acres's Henley Regata?? The wrong people are working in archives centres. It's always "protect, protect, noshow, noshow".
so as a canadian your taxes have been paying to save these films have they? ppl in Briain can see the films at screen online so whats your problem? im sure the bfi will make them available in canada when you start paying for them
What a complete idiot you are. People like you are so wrong, thinking about frontiers when it comes to world culture. I would willingly buy them on dvd if it existed. Most important Edison films are available online. We have some of canadian cinema available online. The 10 films from the first Lumière institute can be seen online (though thy should show a lot more). Only at BFI would you hear such stupid argument .

Brittish are really foolish to accept these terms that they have to be enrolled in a U
or go to certain libraries to see these clips. As you say: they pay the BFI. They have a right to watch these clips in their homes. Collectors preserve films. They give them to BFI so the films can go public. Why did they release so many Mitchell And Kenyon dvds? The founders surely insisted they were for the public. Previous collectors were fooled.
It's silent, it's blurry, it's poorly lit, it has no plot, it's only half a minute long, and for all that, it's STILL more entertaining than any Adam Sandler movie that I know of.
Amen! If the makers of films like this knew Adam Sandler and Pauly Shore were gonna abuse their invention, they would have burned all evidence of these old films!
