Made for the National Coal Board, George
Dunning's 1969 short
Hands, Knees and Bumps a Daisy is an instructional film informing miners of the importance of gloves and
kneepads. Well, the first two thirds are, anyway - the final portion of the film is an almost unrelated comedy skit featuring a stripper.
The instructional portion of the film is narrated by Stanley
Unwin in his unique brand of semi-nonsense ("Now today, fellow
blokers and
worklemates, we're going to do a
chitty-chat about the hands and the deep
importload of the protecting of those hands by the wearing of the
safety glovery, oh yes"). More on the short can be read at
