RSPB Annual Film Shows sadly now long gone.

Every year the RSPB used to an annual RSPB Film Shows and shown all around the UK in various towns and cities. The premier of the RSPB’s was held in London in early spring (April/May) and where I live close to in Newcastle Upon Tyne the RSPB Film Show was held in October every year. But sadly those Annual RSPB Film Shows are now long gone. The Annual Film Shows were one of the big highlights for RSPB members every year. I’m posting about this as there always new members of this forum every year. And the link above(hope the link works, was one such film that won a lot of awards for wildlife films. After this film and two other shorter films shown over the UK. The following year BBC TV broadcast this film on TV.

  • This shows an advert for the 1985 RSPB Annual Film Show in a town I’ve never visited. But  this shows the RSPB’s Annual Film were still taken place in 1985. What year when the last RSPB’s Film shows took place, I don’t know!

    This RSPB Film was shown either in 1961 or1962 and this film was about the RSPB’s headquarters, The Lodge Reserve of which the RSPB had just moved into in 1961 as there new headquarters, after there headquarters had been in London for many years. It never won any awards, as the advance of high quality Wildlife films hadn’t been made at that time.
