Geoff Manaugh looks at a vintage "mobile cinema" used by the UK's Ministry of Technology in the 1960s to promote modern production techniques. The restored vehicle is taking its 22 seats on the road to show vintage films.
Oliver Halls from Devon, England restored the vehicle with a group of his friends. This one is apparently the only one to have survived from the 7 manufactured in 1967 for the Ministry of Technology.
The current film choices include "historic films unseen for many years, including old footage of the area."
