FIRST GEAR - THE CAR AND TV BEFORE JEREMY
When? 24 February 2018
Where? Beaulieu - New Forest
Join us at the Motor Museum on Saturday 24 February as we unveil clips of long lost TV shows and commercials from the National Motor Museum Trust's Film and Video Collection.
For over five years Sarah Wyatt and her team of volunteers have been exploring every nook and cranny in the Film and Video Collection and have found undiscovered recordings of long lost TV shows like Drive In, Wheelbase, Motorfair, The Motor Show, Wheels and Wheeltracks.
The evening will commence at 7.30 pm in the Lecture Theatre of the National Motor Museum’s Collections Centre and finish at around 10.00 pm. The National Motor Museum will be open from 6.00pm for a private viewing at no extra charge. A pay bar will be available in the Collections Centre for the purchase of beers, wines and soft drinks.
