18, Folgate Street – Spitalfields
Daniel Cruickshank & the House that Wouldn’t Die
(BBC, 2003)
18 Folgate Street
Dennis Severs House
Intense, operatic.
The smells… the sounds….
Walk through the picture.
INVOKE the past.
Illusion.

Hello you two — nice to hear from you Michelle (and GOOD LUCK with your fundraising!).
Charlotte Frost has also included this link recently tweeted by Dennis Severs House: http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p00t3f42/Ours_to_Keep_Incomers/
I’m afraid only UK viewers have access to the program.
