On now is a program "A day in the life of Sheffield", a programme following one day in Sheffield in 1973.

Very interesting to see the hole in the road again :)

It was brilliant! We were sad when it finished, it wasn't long enough. I wonder if anyone has all the footage that wasn't used in the film, it would be great to see.

It should really be played at somewhere like Western Park museum regularly for all Sheffielders to watch.

I have looked on bbc iplayer and it says "not available" sorry :(

Are you sure it wasn't called - "All In A Day - The City"

"This fascinating documentary could perhaps be best described as a visual essay, a documentary without commentary looking at events in Sheffield on 5th September 1973. Steelworkers retire, babies are born, there are fashion shows and council meetings, crashed lorries and PCs on the beat. A vivid snapshot of Seventies Britain.

Filmed in Sheffield on just one day – the 5th September 1973 – it featured a birth, a marriage, a retirement, a burial, two operations, a council meeting, a newspaper editorial meeting, steel workings, abattoir workings, market stalls, a fashion show in Walsh’s cafe, policemen on the beat, neighbours from hell, the peace gardens before the egg box, smog, a lorry crash in Walkley, the hole in the road, choirboys, a mini with it’s wheels stolen, lots of really old looking people, drab streets, clean and tidy streets … and plenty of Radio Sheffield."

There's a place where you can download it, but we are not allowed to talk about such things on here.:o

Very likely, I wrote that whilst it was actually on, and didn't check too much as I wanted to let people know :D

Downloading both parts as I type.
Just download "VeohWebPlayerSetup_eng" from the video page and install it then go back to video page and click the dwnload again and it will start to download the video for you.
May take a while to receive both files depending on traffic and band width !!

Thanks and credits must go to Casper for the link !!

Update....... both parts downloaded then joined together and burned to dvd.
The quality leaves a lot to be desired but hey it,s 36yrs old.
The old bloke who retired is a hero in my book !!!!
