Gerry Troyna's beautiful observational documentary takes a look back at the 1976 May bank holiday in Scarborough and follows the events of the day from dawn preparations by street cleaners and deckchair attendants to night-time patrols by the local police.
In between, we see day-trippers arrive by the coach load, traditional English breakfasts prepared by traditional seaside landladies, donkey rides, bingo, Max Jaffa, and lots and lots of chips and ice cream.
Clip taken from Scarborough Bank Holiday, originally broadcast on BBC One (Yorkshire), Friday 10 September, 1976.
