This class was run by my Grandad, Bill Blackeby (not Herbert as stated in the clip). He had a shoe repair business at 164 Central Street, London. His daughter Joan is my mother.

Hi , amazing piece of footage we have only just come accross the young girl in the video ‘Colleen’ is actually my nan who is alive & well. She was ecstatic being shown this. Is there any way of downloading it?
TerryVan says
Billywarville - I decided to take another look at my Grandad's clip today to remember him as he died this day, April 16th in 1969. Strangely your comment about your nan, Colleen was posted on April 16th too... I hope she's still well and it's nice to have a shared moment in history!
