Its amazing the effect and how much affection this film gives!! I grew up in the industrial east end of Glasgow and the natural history and wildlife on the banks of the river Clyde flowing through Glasgow mesmorised me. I also identified with the character Billy Casper and there defifinately were a few parallels in the film resonating from my own childhood in the late 60's
