One of the Felix mentions from <a href=\"https:\/\/f001.backblazeb2.com\/file\/felixonlinearchive\/issues\/pdfs\/felix_650.pdf\">August 1983<\/a> had this photo on the front page. In the video you&#8217;ll spot Bo, so does this confirm the Guilds link? The first mention in Felix was in 1967 and the last in 1983, so I&#8217;m assuming it no longer exists? Anyway, once again we can enjoy this 1972 8mm film shot by STOIC for inclusion in TOPIC and with the added bonus of the original commentary as recorded by Graham Foster. There are also some nice views of the original layout of the gardens along with brief shots of the old Southside and Weeks Halls.<\/p>\r\n<p><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\/2rrx81X1NhE?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><\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Colin Grimshaw June 2022<\/strong><\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In 1972 the Guilds Pedal Car Club were having fun in Princes Gardens, STOIC were there with the 8mm film camera&#8230;<\/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":[3921,295168,82],"tags":[3929,158,5019,212,89,18467],"class_list":["post-9931","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-blog-update","category-student-events","category-student-life","tag-city-and-guilds","tag-clubs-and-societies","tag-felix","tag-stoic","tag-students","tag-tv-studio"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
