The Geezers take a day out to explore Hackney Wick. Speedway. Pigeon fancying. Factories. Smells. Their memories collide with the new face of The Wick with its workshops, artists studios and expensive residential accommodation.

So many memories here, Hackney Speedway, Len Silver ” Make it a date, Friday at 8″ in the last years my pal Bob Cook used to drive the grading tractor, an old grey Ferguson (Fergie) and also used to mechanic for one of the riders in home matches.
The guy who said ” You could walk in and out of jobs no problem” was so right, a great piece of film. My mum could have bought our house just after the war for £500, today properties in the same street (Lichfield road) are fetching half a million! Land of the yuppies!
