#121 Silent Films (Part 1)

Time to go back to the golden age of cinema; this week we’ll tell the story of how sport first burst onto the big screen, how the first silent films were soundtracked and how F Scott Fitzgerald fell in and out of love with Hollywood.

And we’re also discussing the things that take us back in time (like the theme tune to Going For Gold). What takes you back in time? AND PLEASE SEND US YOUR QUAINT LOCAL ATTRACTIONS! (With a pic of the leaflet if possible).

You can email everything in here: hello@ohwhatatime.com
