Can anyone help me, this bridge featured in a sequence in a film or TV program from the 50's or 60's , i believe there was a shot from the operators cabin. Can anyone help, and no it wasn't Billy Elliott or boys from the black stuff. It was a thriller i beleve and in black and white. Thank you

Happy Easter Everyone!

Doh just found it, trouble is i gave the wrong Transporter bridge name. Its the Newort Transporter Bridge that spans over the river Usk. And the film well it could be one of two ... Tiger Bay (1959) or The Other Side of the Underneath (1972). I seem to remember Hayley Mills being in it so Tiger Bay is what it was...sorry for any confusion!!!!
