Lambretta - Programme on Talking Pictures channel

[Chilli]

Not sure if anyone overseas can access this channel but tomorrow morning at 10.30am they're showing a programme charting the beginnings of the Lambretta scooter.

Might be worth a watch.

Watched it this morning, quite interesting from a historical perspective. British mods' love of them was mentioned a couple of times. Was spoiled somewhat by the claim at the end that Lambretta is now a respected clothing company!

They didn't did they? oh dear!!  I've recorded it, but haven't had a chance to watch it yet.  It's on my list of programmes to watch that I've recently recorded from that channel including 'Our Man in Marrakesh' and 'Up The Junction'.

Entertaining film with good cast .
A few years ago l got a dvd about the history of Lambretta done by a British guy . It was very good but I don't feel the need to watch it again , somehow. .
