| First shown on BBC Two on Wednesday 8th June 1977 at 8.10pm. | A celebratory series of 13 programmes for Jubilee Year about craftsmen in Britain. 12: Bells 'Over the centuries there have been many hundreds of bell foundries in this country but today there are only two. I suppose in the entire world there are only something like six or seven bell foundries, and those are mostly in and around Europe.' The Whitechapel Bell Foundry has made some of the most famous bells in the world, including the Liberty Bell of America and Big Ben of London. This film shows the process of making a bell, from moulding to casting and tuning, and features several of the craftsmen who make up this small firm which has existed in the East End of London for over 500 years.
