With footage from the 1940s through to the 1970s, this collection
of film extracts from the Isle of Man's tourism archive features
the last native speaker of Manx Gaelic, the island's famous kipper
factories, the Villa Marina's bathing beauty contests, and the
Palace Ballroom's pop music competitions (as judged by legendary
DJs Jimmy Saville and David Jacobs). Highlights from the following
archive films are included: 'Trophy Island' (1949), 'This Week in
Britain' (1978), 'Fairways to the Isle of Man' (1976), 'The Isle of
Man' (1957), 'The Proud Islander' (1963), and 'Holiday Island'
(1960s).
