THANK GOD IT'S SUNDAY
SIR JOHN BETJEMAN

Sir John Betjeman narrates two classic films from the BBC archive.

Thank God It's Sunday [1972] Two films showing how Londoners spend Sunday.

Part one looks at those who go to the seaside and part two looks at those who stay in London. Summoned By Bells [1976] Based on the verse autobiography of the same name - 'a unique and touching account of an Edwardian middle-class childhood'.

The film covers the period of Sir John Betjeman's life up to the time he started his first job. Betjeman visits some of the places that played an important part in his early life; including schools, Cornwall holiday haunts and Oxford College.
