never seen that one. A modern redo of that would have him "doored" by the van driver, as he was a bit close to the van?

Night mail . Who could forget it, and the narration by William Auden. The train headed by 46115 Scots Guardsman.
Percussive maintainance, if it don't fit, hit it with the hammer.

Who remembers the day Reginald Molehusband got it right? Unfortunately all we have is our memories - the film is apparently lost forever.

This is the story of Reginald Molehusband, married, two children, whose reverse parking was a public danger. People came from miles just to see it. Bets were laid on his performance. What he managed to miss at the back, he was sure to make up for at the front. Bus drivers and taxis changed their routes to avoid him. Until the day that Reginald Molehusband did it right. Not too close, far enough forward... come on Reggie... and reverse in slowly... come on.... and watching traffic... and park perfectly! Well done Reginald Molehusband, the safest parker in town.

If only it was that easy. :)
