    I remember seeing this film at home in the late 1940s. My father borrowed a copy on the now defunct 9.5mm standard and we were made to watch this piece of social history. I can remember being moved by the story but not understanding the reasons why they were leaving (well I was 10 or 11 at the time).

    Nowadays you can download a copy for GBP 12.50 from the British Film Institute
