Blitz: Colour Footage Found

This was brought to my attention (thank you, Bob D.!):

EDIT: Thanks to Theatre Mistress for letting me know the video was corrupted. There's a new video embedded (see below) from a British news program and includes an interview with the granddaughter of the fellow who filmed it, as well as a lovely interview with Juliet Gardiner. If I haven't yet rambled on about her in my 'Suggested Reading' posts...well, I should have.
Also posted below is the original raw footage that was released to the news back in September.

LONDON (AP) — Rare color footage of the bomb damage inflicted on London during World War II has surfaced on the eve of the 70th anniversary of the Blitz.

The dramatic footage shows the destruction of several London landmarks, including the flagship John Lewis store on Oxford Street.

The film was released Monday by Westminster Council to mark the start of the devastating German bombing campaign that began September 7, 1940, and continued until May 1941.

The film was found in the attic by the family of an air raid warden who shot it on the home movie equipment in use in the 1940s.
