Just Alright
3 July 2013
A new man joins the civilian firefighters at a London unit during the Second World War. He meets his fellow firemen and firewomen, manages to enjoy some leisure time with them, and then goes on his first mission with the crew as it attempts to save an explosives warehouse on Trinidad Street near the London docks.

So this is a drama showing civilians helping the British war effort by being fire fighters. That is cool. I guess I would have preferred it was a documentary, or at least had stock footage, but I cannot ask for what was not done.

Overall, it is a decent little story. Not particularly memorable, but maybe worth a peek if you are interested in the career and work of Humphrey Jennings.
