Agatha Christie's "They do it with Mirrors" on TV over the holiday, with Joan Hickson as Miss Marple? (Sky Alibi channel).
Quite significant to the story was a family gathering in which a particular home movie was shown - on....yes, an Ampro!
It was a 16mm Ampro Stylist New Educational, and there were several close-up shots of the projector, both static and running.
It was really super to see one of my favourites actually being used. I hope Barry Johnson caught a glimpse of this film!
Best to everyone at this season of goodwill.

Valves and celluloid - a great combination!
Early technology rules OK!
