With the end of the Second World War it was not long before increasing wealth, cheaper cars, & social pressures made a family car the aspiration of thousands. Ford, Hillman, Standard, Morris & Vauxhall became household names, & the streets of Britain`s suburbs began to fill with modern-looking saloon cars, designed to transport mother, father & 2.4 children with ease, if not speed. This highly-illustrated book looks at the British cars that were available to the post-war family, & also some of the foreign makes that had an important place in the market, & which had a great influence on the British-made cars that followed. ...

The British film industry was already well established when Hollywood sprang to life in 1911, & has remained at the forefront of film-making ever since; from Cecil Hepworth & Alfred Hitchcock to Ridley Scott & Christopher Nolan, & all the innumerable artistic & technical titans in between, the UK has never been far from the cinematic vanguard. Originally flat theatrical sets on temporary stages (often in gardens!), early British studios could be found everywhere from Glasgow to Brighton, & by the 1920s elaborately lit indoor production stages had developed. Stiff competition from the `big five` US studios led to seismic upheavals over the coming decades, yet names like Alexander Korda, Carol Reed, David Lean & Richard Attenborough attest to Britain`s enduring stature. From quintessentially British studios & productions
- Gainsborough romances, Ealing comedies, Hammer horrors & many more
- to the British role in blockbusting franchises like James Bond, Star Wars & Harry Potter, Kiri Bloom Walden here tells the century-long story of British film, illustrating it with colourful photographs of actors, directors & production staff at work.
