Comment on Kaleidoscope event to screen rare and recently recovered Associated-Rediffusion shows by Carol Smith

Wonder if you can help me please? My husbands grandfather was shown in a documentary called The Grafters which was shown 27th December 1966 and as he has never seen him and as my husbands 70th birthday is this June, I would love to be able to show him the programme or if not perhaps a picture of his grandfather. ( he apparently was the man walking around the market in one part and later on singing in the Flora pub.)
Hoping you can help me
Carol Smith

Having read this I can only assume there is no material available for commercial sale. What a tragic loss.
