A film vault that has received £850,000 in Government funding has been unveiled.
The facility, at the University of Teesside, Middlesbrough, houses an archive of TV and film footage spanning more than 90 years.
It was compiled with help from former BBC newsman Roger Burgess, editor of the Royal Television Society.
It was officially opened by Professor Michael Smith, the university's deputy vice-chancellor and Councillor David Budd, executive Middlesbrough Council member for regeneration and culture.
