Gotta love the music that accompanies this.

[Kevo00]

Quality!!!

[Ameecher]

I think I prefer W H Auden's original myself.

[Griff]

There was another version....well vintage

[Ameecher]

I believe that is the original which the poem was written for.

[Kevo00]

Yep the original GPO film is a classic too.

I had a search and I couldn't find that music in mp3 format

I do however have the excellent music from another nationalised company- enjoy

[Griff]

lol, theres always the BBC according to Bill Bailey

Why on earth would you want that annoyingly monotone man reading a poem in mp3?!

Oh, and it's amazing how they managed to make the flyover of the Tyne Bridge look dingier than a coal depot. Mind you, I guess it was the 80's...

[JamieLei]

1989 actually!

Weird to see a 37 in intercity livery. The Brunel bridge looks amazing though - or is it the Forth?

And I wanted the music - not the poem!

[Kevo00]

It shows both the Brunel and Forth Bridges. They'd have to really, as they are the most stunning bits. Thought the shot of the 37 on the West Highland with the work 'Commuters' at the same time was a little funny though lol.

Brunel Bridge. Amazing piece of design. He was the greatest designer the world has ever seen, of course.

[Ameecher]

Brunel Bridge!? What is all this clap trap! The Prince Albert bridge, come on! If you called every bridge designed by Brunel the Brunel Bridge, we'd be awash with them! [/end rant]

It is bloody impressive I'll give you that, especially the height above the river, it's pretty damn high! Although, it is somewhat ruined by the adjacent road bridge.

Would it be wrong to link to myself at this point on YouTube?

Clicky

That was pretty good! Make another one at once.

He's got another one, I believe. I recall him posting them a while back.

No, I haven't. I started one but at the same time I moved to a Nikon which shoots in quicktime not AVI. I still need to find a converter..... a free one. Or premier... a free version.

[orudge]

Or just use a decent video editor that can read QuickTime files?

I am loyal to my big blue M, unlike those who switch to an apple just to "be cool"...

I notice you still use Windows, Owen

[orudge]

I use Windows, Mac OS X and various forms of Linux. I can see the benefits of all systems.
