This is the soundtrack of Jack Hargreaves last 'Out of Town' broadcast made sometime in 1981. It's strange, or perhaps not, that the lack of a picture seems to make J's words more independent of their time, allowing me to imagine what he's observing, as in an unillustrated book. Distant sounds enter the background briefly. If the film was made in his usual way, it would have been filmed mute. A soundtrack appropriate to the film would be added in the studio and J would then record a commentary that would be spliced into the broadcast programme. He would not have been talking as the film was made, but sitting or standing beside his cameraman - Stan Bréhaut (Bray-o) - who'd been the other half of nearly all his programmes for Southern TV over 30 years. He filmed with an ARRI camera without sound and never used a tripod &lt;http://www.fascinate-project.com/?page_id=275&amp;gt;

A delerious exploitation of the jolly grump deity, The Golden Azdha (Heel VsBabyface) during a recent meltdown whilst reviewing an episiode of the CW's Batwoman. He truly is a martyr.
