I've just been watching the above programme on BBC4. It was made this year but may have already had a mention on SL. It deals with the history of trams nationwide but features some coverage of Leeds trams remembered by the writer Alan Bennett who, of course, is a Leeds lad. There are also odd clips of Leeds buses to watch out for. For anyone interested the programme is still available to watch on BBC iplayer.
