This 1930s film captures life in countryside on the cusp of change.
The coming of the motorcar, radio, telephone and with them 'new ideas & expectations from the city' would see a centuries old way of life change for better or worse.
The first in a series of films part 1 captures all aspects of life in a village. From having a pint and a natter and setting the world to rights in the local village pub, to village green politics and a wonderful conversation with old timer questioning the "need for a bath when he has a perfectly good river at the end of the garden"
