The Bedford Heavy Unit in the NFS (London Region) reminds us of a bygone era when these mighty vehicles roamed our streets, ready to tackle any emergency. Their presence symbolizes resilience and preparedness. The iconic sheet music cover for "Me and My Girl - Lambeth Walk" transports us back to a time when this catchy melody captured hearts across the nation. It serves as a reminder of Lambeth's contribution to musical history. Percy in Karel Reiszs' film "We Are The Lambeth Boys" embodies the spirit of youth rebellion against societal norms. His story resonates with generations who have dared to challenge conventions and pave their own path.
