1972 The Barbican

john-wayne-interview-what-makes-a-good
24 January 1964
In this short interview with perhaps the greatest cowboy of them all, a slightly weary sounding John Wayne speaks eloquently about the Western genre and how trends in film-making are determined more by individual box-office successes than the popularity of particular types of movie.
Featuring David Smeeton and John Wayne

1988-holocaust-hero-nicholas-winton-on
Sir Nicholas Winton was a hero of the Holocaust, who in 1938 oversaw the Czech Kindertransport, which brought Jewish children from German-occupied Czechoslovakia to safety in the UK.
He worked tirelessly to ensure money was raised and homes were found for the young refugees, but it was 50 years before the full story of his heroic efforts became public knowledge.
In 1988, his wife discovered a scrapbook in the attic containing a mass of documents, including the names of the rescued children.
The BBC programme That’s Life reunited him with just a few of the many hundreds of people he had rescued.
Sir Nicholas was knighted in 2003, and died in 2015 at the age of 106.
These clips from That’s Life were first broadcast in February 1988

5 February 1955
Old campaigners pose for the cameras beside the statue of Mrs Pankhurst, while Miss March and Lilian Lenton take the opportunity to talk about their battle for suffrage on the 37th anniversary of the granting of votes for women.
Lilian Lenton (pictured) recalls how she reckoned on setting alight two buildings a week during her most active period as a suffragette. Her more colourful escapades included evading the police while posing as an errand boy who was reading a comic and munching an apple and later making an escape to France aboard a private yacht.

1965-late-night-line-up-douglas-bader
Late Night Line-up | Douglas Bader
The Battle of Britain was won by 'everyone in this country'.
CHANNEL | BBC 2
FIRST BROADCAST | 17 September 1965
SYNOPSIS
World War II fighter pilot ace Douglas Bader discusses his fame and why it is so important to mark anniversaries of major historical events such as the Battle of Britain. He defends the attitude of young people who protest against wars and talks about the 1956 film 'Reach for the Sky', which tells his story.
DID YOU KNOW?
Douglas Bader got his RAF commission in 1930, but lost both his legs in a plane crash in 1931. However, within six months he was walking on artificial legs. He rejoined the RAF in 1939 and rose to command No 242 Squadron, the Canadian squadron based at Coltishall. He led this unit with great success throughout the Battle of Britain and by October 1940 had been awarded the DSO (Distinguished Service Order) and the DFC (Distinguished Flying Cross). By the end of the war he had been mentioned in dispatches three times, had an official tally of 23 enemy aircraft shot down and had been a prisoner of war in Colditz, from where he made numerous attempts to escape.
