The Land Where Archie Rules(Full).avi

The Land Where Archie Rules
Made by the pupils Astor School, Dover in the mid to late 1970s
Features Dover especially Tower Hamlets, Town and Seafront.
Soundtrack a mixture of pieces but predominantly a song that I believe was written and recorded by Paul Sherman.

I'm pretty sure the 'Archie' relates to Archie Dryden (Jimmy Dryden's dad), especially as 'skins rule' is on the wall. A bit later (I was at Astor early 70's) but the themes and places are all the same (my late father was landlord of the Dewdrop in the Hamlets)........Paul Sherman was the Chemistry teacher and singer/guitarist with local band 'Hard Travellin' Great vid.....

Rather good, and huge local interest for us Dovorians, going about 50 years back into the past.
