TonyMac Posted April 24, 2012 Report Share Posted April 24, 2012 (edited) Our new Memories of West Ham Speedway DVD is now available and if you haven't already bought a copy, you are welcome to view a 10-minute trailer on our website via the following link: http://www.retro-spe...sDpoHFZuVLM&p=1 The double-disc DVD runs to a total of four hours and includes filmed or audio interviews with: Norman Hunter Malcolm Simmons Bengt Jansson Olle Nygren Tony Clarke Stan Stevens Colin Pratt Reg Fearman Terry Stone Dingle Brown Len Silver Plus... Historian and author John Chaplin introduces the early West Ham pioneers and post-war heroes, while Hammers' supporter Robert Rogers provides a view from the terraces. Tony Bishop, son of the late Phil Bishop who, as most of you know, was one of the six killed in the Lokeren road disaster. Indeed, the Lokeren segment on disc 2 is a very moving part of the DVD. Colin Pratt, Stan Stevens and Tony Bishop are to be applauded for their candour in recalling those tragic events. There are very brief clips of action from the famous East London tracks and a multitude of photos, many of them previously unseen. Hopefully it will bring back many memories for those who ever went to Custom House and also provide an insight into West Ham Speedway from the opening in 1928 to its closure in 1972. It costs £16 (post-free in UK) and, of course, we'll also send by airmail to anywhere in the world. http://www.retro-speedway.com Edited April 24, 2012 by tmc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
