It was shot for inclusion in the STOIC news programme TOPIC. The original videotape has long since been erased, but this film survived. Although we didn&#8217;t have colour TV equipment at the time, the only method of recording events was to shoot them on film and in this case it was in colour. Morphy Day was in fact the actual boat race, seen very briefly at the start of the film, afterwards the traditional &#8216;battle&#8217; also took place on the Putney tow path. Here then is Morphy Day seen for the first time in colour since the film was shot.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Morphy Day in HD - c1972\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/2O4_ztiAq5U?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>Colin Grimshaw August 2016<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>See a Morphy Day on the tow path at Putney shot on 8mm colour film from around 1972 in HD&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[18461,53,82],"tags":[280,212,89],"class_list":["post-6870","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-college-history","category-events","category-student-life","tag-sport","tag-stoic","tag-students"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs-staging.imperial.ac.uk\/videoarchive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6870","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs-staging.imperial.ac.uk\/videoarchive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs-staging.imperial.ac.uk\/videoarchive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs-staging.imperial.ac.uk\/videoarchive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs-staging.imperial.ac.uk\/videoarchive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6870"}],"version-history":[{"count":12,"href":"https:\/\/blogs-staging.imperial.ac.uk\/videoarchive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6870\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8628,"href":"https:\/\/blogs-staging.imperial.ac.uk\/videoarchive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6870\/revisions\/8628"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs-staging.imperial.ac.uk\/videoarchive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6870"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs-staging.imperial.ac.uk\/videoarchive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6870"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs-staging.imperial.ac.uk\/videoarchive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6870"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
