This is totally off-topic but I thought I'd share this with you anyway. Here is a 17 minute film from 1959 showing a Swedish couple on a roadtrip in Scorland and England. I don't know if the film was sponsored by The British Tourist Board or SAAB. I think this film is charming - what do you think? (The narrator speaks English).

Excellent bit of our past seen from the eyes of a visitor, love the Scotish kettle that just uses a couple of sheets of old news paper
Even a some Minors in it

I'm glad some of you liked the film. Sorry to have disappointed those who prefer that other kind of Swedisd films
Maybe I should try to dig up something more typically Swedish next time
Did you know that Björn and Benny of ABBA made the soundtrack for a Swedish film called 'The Seduction of Inga' around 1970? I am going to visit Scotland for the first time of my life ten days from now. I really hope it looks a lot like it did in 1959
