Fishy Classic

A gem from ‘The lost world of Freise-Greene’ BBC2 History series:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/programmes/openroad/console/bb_wm_console.shtml?nbram=1&nbwm=1&bbram=1&bbwm=1&or_clip=4_5

It’s all quite interesting in its own right, but the specific impermeo interest is from approx 1’40” to 2’05”

There's a pretty young woman bandaging her fingers prior to clocking-on as a fish gutter, and then a take of the team in action with a rather shapely posterior in center-shot. No sound sadly, but one can almost hear the susurrus of 80 years ago come down through the ages. It is fair to say, though, that from the olfactory point of view one would probably prefer to encounter these garments new rather than used.

btw 1 Dan Cruishank’s TV commentary said these intrepid ladies processed one fish each per second… not people to offend lightly, then.

btw 2 Ms Oban1 is wearing a lovely FairIsle don’t you think?
