Another poser for some of the more "senior" members of this august forum ;)

Back in the early 70s I recall watching some short documentaries on either BBC1 or 2 at around tea-time viewing (5pm to 6:30pm) It was a different short every day, but I don't think there were more than 6 or 7 in the entire series before being recycled the following week.

The docs lasted about 10-15 minutes, and from memory they were about the following:-
  1. Set in a leafy suburb and there's a guy in his drive doing up a classic car, with a young girl neighbour watching him work over the fence, until eventually the car is done and they both go out for a drive.
  2. another one covered speed boat racing. Can't remember all the details but I remember quite vividly a backing track from the rock band Bachman Turner Overdrive and their "You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet".
  3. Another short covered Australian sheep drivers - basically a couple of guys transporting sheep in articulated lorries through the harsh Australian Outback.
There were one or two more, but I really can't remember details.

I doubt any of this will ring any bells but here's to hoping (y)
