150th Anniversary showing of 'Angling Today' TV programme - grayling fishing on Cromford Meadows 1972
150th Anniversary showing of Angling Today TV programme filmed on Cromford Meadows in 1972
I mention this programme in the book which a lot of you picked up on Sat. Oct. 5th, so now seemed a good time to post it.
This episode of Angling Today was first shown on ATV (now ITV) in the winter of 1972.
Terry Thomas - not the film actor, but a TV personality fisherman, narrates.
The film shows members of Cromford Fly Fishers Club -
Ken Clower,
Tom Saville - who celebrated his 100th birthday in September this year -
and Alf Stone, his brother-in-law, centre-pin fishing for grayling on Cromford Meadows.
The programme is 30 mins long and split into 2 chunks as the file is otherwise very big.
John Pass bought the copyright of this programme years ago. This copyright is now owned by his widow, Clarice Pass.
She has kindly allowed this to be shared with everyone in the Club - and The Grayling Society - as part of the 150th celebrations.
