Trams in London are a thing of the past - buses have taken over - but many
Londoners, and especially the Cockneys, will always remember them with
affection, and in song.
The film, completed in London's 'Last Tram Week', takes you round the streets
of South London and along the Embankment with two Cockneys who remember a song
about trams they sang in the music halls fifty years ago. Finally, 20,000
Londoners cheer and sing their goodbyes to the trams which for ninety-one years
had rattled and clanged their way past - particularly through the colourful and
lively part of South London near the Elephant & Castle.
