Talking Pictures is a great channel and a favourite in our house. A surprising number of British made films in the 1950s and 1960s - which the channel specialises in - have ships and/or transport scenes of the time. Many of the studios in and around London, where the majority of them were, for obvious cost reasons used London and the South East to shoot the films in and it is fascinating to see Britain as it was when many of us were growing up. There have been several recently involving mainly the Port of London and it is great fun trying to identify the ships. If you haven't seen it check it out. Sky 343 and Freeview 81, I think most people can get it.
