Synopsis

This historic film documents the restoration of the House of Commons, which was severely damaged by a bombing raid in May 1941. It also commemorates the secret location, in nearby Church House, where MPs met following the destruction of the Commons chamber. The film features Sir Winston Churchill giving a lighthearted commemorative speech to mark the occasion of the reopening of the restored House of Commons. There is also rare footage of King George VI delivering an address to both House of Parliament in Westminster Hall - the only monarch to have done so since Charles I. Many of the skills employed to restore the chamber to its original condition are also featured in sequences showing the craftsmen at work.

Solidrariol Am I Missing Something?
ChicRawIdol A brilliant film that helped define a genre
Catangro After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.
Phillipa Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
