    Look at the Standards they are selling in the clip. That’s later than ’82. Maybe ’86 or ’87. I left a comment to that effect on the YouTube page and the cheeky sod deleted it.

     I left a similar comment on YouTube; just had this reply from Syd Pearman :-“Sorry about the mistake regarding the date when the film was taken. I think it was the result of a bad guess on our part based on how we came to make it. We had been filming the karate finals at Chrystal (sic) Palace and decided to call at Speakers Corner on the way home, found it interesting so shot most of the film there and then.It won a ’10 Best’ ward in 1988 and it was shown at the National Film Theatre in London. It has been in our cupboard ever since until I decided to put it on YouTube.Syd”
