Default NVCF on Youtube!

I stumbled upon this...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B1HeShbUwXU Was this taken before it opened? Who shot it? Is that Paul Stenning at 1:10? it looks like him...

It looks as though it was shot during the period before hoi polloi (Greek for "the many") were admitted at 10.30.

It seems that one stallholder had chosen not to open up for this early period.

Thanks for finding that Muttley. I am hoping to make it to the next one and now have an idea of what to expect!

Could also have been a single handed stallholder wanting to take an early look around without his own stuff being pawed over in his absence.

It's a guess but I think that video was taken just after the loading doors were closed at 0900 but before early entry.

Yes, I reckon that was done early, as Jeffrey says. One loading door is still open so it's probably just before 9am.

LOL!! No, I didn't have time to lay around on top of a radio cabinet then!

That was well done. Maybe the missing stallholder was the one making the video.. Very good idea though..
I noticed after it finished that another video was available for a Grundig radio. Having watched that you start looking for other similar radio or electronic videos..

yes, it's quite surprising to find so many radio related things on YouTube. There is one user (I just found the link at the side of the NVCF video) who plays lots of records on a 1955 Philips and then records the whole song, there is lots of praise aboutt he sound quality .

Thanks to whoever shot this footage and muttley for link. Just like being there. This sort of thing seems a good idea to me more please eg some rally and auction footage would be interesting! It's what the early broadcasters had in mind re getting to experience things you couldn't reach physically. Regular channels often still don't really achieve that now except in a very predictable and restricted way! Dave
