Youtube: Telly Savalas Looks At Birmingham

Little gem from the 1970's. BBC Radio 4 Site says: In the late 1970s, several of the UK's major cities were the stars of B-movies the so-called 'Quota Quickies'...One such classic is called Telly Savalas Looks At Birmingham. It has the American actor extolling the virtues and history of Birmingham. His narration is unintentionally funny and wonderfully kitsch...The director of these quota quickies, the late Harold Baim, seemed to have an obsession with multi-storey car parks, concrete shopping centres and motorways in his attempt to catapult the city into the 21st century.
