Further information: This film was made as part of a project by the Kingston and District Cine Club to record Kingston upon Thames in the run up to HM the Queen's Silver Jubilee year. All cine club members were invited to make and submit a film from their own perspective.

The filmmaker Colin Duff (whose family members also feature in the film) worked for BBC Radio for 38 years in different roles, eventually as Broadcast Duty Manager. He was in his first year as Studio Manager when he made this film aged just 22.
