The' missing live' was on this morning but I was not paying much attention (reading the paper) when I heard this guy mention something about an underground disaster ,anyway I started to pay attention and sure enough he was talking about something what happened during the war at Bethnal Green, London.This guy had miraculously survived a crush disaster when someone fired an anti aircraft gun. People panicked and ran for cover to the underground tube thinking it was an air raid ,I believe a lot of people died in the rush to get down the tube. But this incident reminded me that a a TV film had been made, I think it was in the mid to late 70s about this disaster and it was called ITS A LOVELY DAY TOMORROW' ,but it was taken off the transmission date at the very last minute can anyone explain why this happened? The film as never been seen or heard of since.Well at least I havent seen it.  |

I don't know if this is the same film but I can recall a one off play broadcast on ITV during the mid-seventies about a real life disaster on the London Underground. It was set in World War Two but I don't recall any anti-aircraft fire. If it's the same film it followed a group of people through out one day in their life showing how they all came to be at the Underground at the same time. One person then tripped on the stairs and everybody fell on top smothering each other. It finished with a shot of the faces of the dead bodies with the camera focusing on the individuals who we the audience had followed.
