2 THE OPENING SCENE It s Wood Street, Walthamstow, The hub of the Walthamstow film industry which sprang to life in the first few decades of the 20th Century. Studios including Precision, Broadwest and Cunard made their home in the Walthamstow suburbs to stop the smog of central London appearing in their films. Nearly 400 silent movies were made here in less than 20 years. The studios found extras for their films in the pub which is still here on Wood Street. Today s Wood Street Indoor Market, used to be the site of the Penny Picture Theatre company. Today the market is filled with over 30 quirky market traders selling vintage fashion, vinyl, jewellery, mind, body and soul goods, and gifts.

Wonderful old pictures can be found on microfilm, in rare books and inside local newspapers dating back nearly 100 years. On 1 May 2017, the actor Paul McGan, who s something of a silent film fan, unveiled a special blue plaque to mark the site of the Precision studios. More plaques are to follow, marking the site of all the others. The Vestry House Museum, Walthamstow, houses a photographic archive containing publicity photos and stills taken on the film sets.
