A BAFTA award nominated animated Industrial safety film featuring a clumsy fruit porter who learns the error of his ways, told as a mini-operetta.

A surreal mix of advertising tropes from the 1960s is very funny but has a neat anti-capitalist undertow.

A psychedelic cartoon depicting under water, outer space and other planets.

Animated short. A man runs and runs.

Meet Mildred. A delightfully dotty older lady who’s carefree attitude means you need to be careful around her. Not the most obvious route into a sponsored film about BP’s air fuelling operation, but these are not the most obvious scriptwriters. Michael Bentine was embarking on “It’s a Square World” and Dick Lester would go on to direct features with The Beatles, and films in the Superman franchise.
