42 Up
In 1964, director Michael Apted interviewed a group of seven year old children for the documentary '7 Up'. He's been back to film them every seven years. Now they are 42. From cab driver Tony, to East End schoolmates Jackie, Lynn and Susan, and the heart-breaking Neil, we see, halfway through their lives, how close these subjects are to realizing their ambitions.
