Here's Health
Director
A film about the National Health Act that established the NHS, and how it benefitted communities. It starts with a bleak look, when coordinated patient care is non-existent, patients cannot see the right specialist when they need to and a family is split up over Christmas.
Dover, Spring 1947
Producer
Dover made over: this quirky and pointed public information film reveals how the heavily-bombed and shelled Kent town was being replanned after the war. The filmmakers cleverly and entertainintly capture our attention by opening on travelogue cliches that they quickly undercut. It's not white cliffs and rolling hills they want to tell us about. It's present-day Dover - remaking itself in the crisp freshness of a postwar spring.
