General archive of newsreels. No Coventry specific items as yet, but interesting otherwise. Covers 1920 to 2000.

National archives public information films. Not Coventry specific, but an interesting look at how life has changed since the war. - This one (http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/film ... police.htm) about the police is quite telling!
