In 1980 London faced monumental change. One tenth of the city, the docklands, was empty and derelict. Fleet Street, newspaper-land, was too small, union bound and technologically archaic to allow any progress. So The Daily Telegraph made a decision and became the first major company to move to Docklands. This film illustrates the start of London's transition. Also, the creation of Westferry Printers - the main printer of newspapers today. (News International had riots but Westferry did it quietly!) The movie is a bit slow by today's pace and the commentary, delivered well by Benny Green, is a bit clunky. Camera - Terry Jenkins.
