Enjoy the thrills and spills the frights and delights of one of the world's greatest travelling spectacles - The Hull Fair. From its ancient beginnings as a means of selling and promoting local goods to the adrenaline charged excitement of modern rides this DVD gives a brief look at one of Europe's most exciting events.
Being from Hull and in my mid fifties I had hoped to see some archive footage mixed with the present day and topped off the history of the event. Sadly this dvd is reprentative of those Open University programmes from 20 years ago. The footage from 1953 is distant and cold, the footage from 1997 is of the contruction, aspects of health & safety and amenities. Interviews with councillors and fair people but not with the public. No intimate shots of families having fun. This along with an amateur commentating this is my worst purchase for as long as i can remember. A waste of money.
