FreddyHeadey Lyr Add: The Famous Flashing Lane - Damian Le Bas (4) Searching for the Travelling People 06 Jul 18


The song features in the 30 minute documentary film "Searching for the Travelling People"
  
The documentary reflects on the work of BBC Radio producer Charles Parker and folk singers Ewan Macoll and Peggy Seeger... and takes Travellers’ Times Editor-at-large, Damian Le Bas, on a journey from Scotland down to Kent and many places in between ...      

... Liza Mortimer, who’s great grandmother Minty Smith, features in the original BBC Radio programme and also in a BBC film documentary called ‘Where do we go from here?’ made down in Edenbridge in Kent said “It was uplifting and very moving but this film needs to be seen by everyone to show not only where Gypsy and Traveller people have come from but how they have moved forward”
