This is a music video that was on TV when I was a kid. The music was immaterial, I was deeply interested in the mechanics of the elevators in the background. I hadn't seen this video for about 30 years but I still occasionally think about it.
I'd always assumed that it was a set and that invisible cuts explained the movements of people but yesterday when I looked it up on YouTube I discovered that it was filmed in real elevator - a type of elevator called a Paternoster Elevator that is highly efficient but very dangerous and has thus been mostly outlawed in public spaces.
I understand that there are 2 of these remaining working in the UK. I'm wondering how I can get to see one....
