    Reducing this clip's current date range, the sight of a Morris Marina at 01:27 bearing an "N" registration plate means the footage MUST have been shot after 1 August 1974.

    Secondly, at 02:39 we catch a glimpse of the former "King's Cross Cinema" on Pentonville Road, seemingly still open at that point. This closed, however, in 1975.

    I submit therefore that the clip's date range could be reduced to 1974-75.
