A classic film depicting the workers of the Citroen GS car plant in the 1970's. Some of the skills, like lead loading, have now gone in modern manufacture.

I think elf 'n safety might have something to say about the guy lead filling - fumes plus fag in mouth!! Also paint spraying with no face mask!
I'll bet they were red hot when it came to helping to ice the Christmas cake!
The overall impression having watched all five videos is of the massive amount of manual labour involved in car manufacture at the time, now of course replaced by speedy robots. Mind you the girl flaring hydraulic pipes manages to achieve a good turn of speed, perhaps because the cameras were watching her.
