I wasn't able to keep many of the thousands of pictures I took whilst working as a staffer, but a select few are shown here.

You may spot Magaret Thatcher symbolically opening up the M25, a rather young looking actor in the shape of John Hurt at a church fete in Chiswick and Terry Wogan pictured on Shepherds Bush Green.

In those days before digital it was quite customary to go out on a night run and cover up to a dozen events and then back to the office to process and print the films, then caption the best ones ready for the sub-editors in the morning.
