March Movies

Glenn Chandler who created Taggart was an RHS pupil in the 60's. When at school in 1966 he organised a review along the lines of 'That was the Week It was' and we made a film which was shown at the review.
It was called 'Art de Nigel' and was a spoof on the awful Art Appreciation films that we were shown. It featured Glenn Chandler, Lewis ?????? and Peter Finlay Hammond. The whole review was held for the Aberfan Fund. The review ended with Glenn dressed as Bailie T singing a satirical song to the tune of Edelweiss from the Sound of Music. The three short films, Art de Nigel, Adverts, and Expedition can be viewed at http://www.royalhigh.org.uk/nnrhsmovies.htm .
Also Tourist Town, is the film made on the geography project in 1966. There are some shots of the Bedford Minibus travelling with the doors open, so much for Health and Safety, and Weedy getting out at Bonskeid.
