Now this sounds real interesting:
""FORGOTTEN FILM OF FORGOTTEN ROADS" - THE STORY OF THE 1955 OXFORD & CAMBRIDGE
Far Eastern Expedition from London to Singapore ('First Overland'). Graeme Aldous, who produced the popular DVD featuring Antony Barrington-Brown's original film footage, gives a 45-minute presentation of the story behind the Expedition and the rescuing of the film, with interviews with the original team members half a century after they completed the world's first great Land-Rover journey."
If anyone has a handy cam and wouldn't mind holding it up for 45 minutes. Maybe there is official recording??

Is that M40 Junction 10?
What time do you want to leave the services? I've never been to Gaydon before
