Latest News
Despite the
Wolvey Bell Ringing Festival which launched itself unexpectedly during the recording
session last weekend, much work was done in the capable hands of Norman
Wheatley. The rough mix is now complete
so the finished CD should be available soon – ready for Christmas presents!
BPS In Action
Videos of BPS are pretty rare, but this one has survived

This clip is from the Bedworth Folk Club’s Christmas party in December 2007. The Whistler from the “Roll It Up And Eat It” EP receives a highly original contribution from the assembled audience. In the words of the organiser: “Hi Lads, Thank you so much for such an entertaining evening - the best I've seen you do!!!!”

An impromptu performance at Shackerstone station on the
Battlefield Line. A Requiem For Steam –
most appropriate! Thanks to the guys at Shackerstone for allowing us to take
photos there. It’s a great little line –
do go along for a ride.
