The interesting thing about this clip is that there are shots that were not used in the final edited version that&#8217;s linked up above.<\/p>\n<p>So, let&#8217;s go back some 43 years to see that short footage, unseen until now.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"jetpack-video-wrapper\"><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/AcN6d0LU7Ow?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-GB&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/div>\n<p><strong>Colin Grimshaw December 2024<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a recent batch of tapes being digitised I discovered some unseen footage shot at Silwood Park back in 1981.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[3921,79,18461,82],"tags":[193,212,18467],"class_list":["post-11514","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-blog-update","category-campus","category-college-history","category-student-life","tag-silwood-park","tag-stoic","tag-tv-studio"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
