Satirist Willie Rushton rails against the Metrication Board, and - with a little help from King Edward I and a group of primary school children - mounts an impassioned defence of the British Imperial system.
With Britain now a member of the EEC, is this the end of "honest British yards", pounds, bushels and pecks, coombs, chaldrons... even puttles? What do the British public think of metrication?
Originally broadcast 20 July, 1973.
