I didn't know there is a Part 2 since my DVD is titled simply " The Leeds Story " with no reference to it being Part 1 .You've presumably tried contacting the makers of the DVD , Forest Edge Films of Baccus Lane , South Cave , East Yorkshire HU15 2ER .

I'll try them, I didn't have the address as I had a copy on video, I put it on DVD for me and gave my mum the video. I saw the part 2 video for sale in Leeds Central Library but when I went in to buy one they'd just sold the last copy.

Hi Chris,Was ther ever a prt 2 and did you find it.I have just been watching The Leeds Story,a relative copied it toDVD for me last year and I had misplaced it.We have mentioned in previous posts thelack of info aboutMotagu Burton,this film has a good run about it.Exterior/interior clips of the Hudson Road factory,retail shops etc.Waddingtons sports day, the 1933 Royal visit to open the Civic Hall,the Queens Hotel construction and loads more.

Likewise, have the first on VHS - would be interested too in finding part two too, 2 you know what I mean

If anyone else is interested in having both parts, I've found some for sale here.http://www.shopzilla.co.uk/8B--Document ... leedsWhich is probably the one I should've bought. I'm not sure how to get a copy onto dvd. If anyone knows how it can be done or, wants to borrow it to try, pm me through flickr.

That's the one they had for sale in the library. Although it doesn't say part 2 on it I think I must have presumed it was part 2. Anyway thanks for that, I've just ordered mine. Collection complete.
