Gran Maud Mellors, from Hull, drove around the city centre with her son, Peter Mellors, and filmed everything she saw. The footage has now emerged nearly 50 years later after Maud's grandson, Nick Mellors, found the reels in an attic. Curious Nick, 52, developed the footage only to realise his gran had inadvertently made a prototype for a dashcam. Nick, who still lives in Hull, believes Maud was testing out her new camera ahead of a trip to Australia in 1969, but just never got round to developing the footage. The quality controller for a reprographics company said: "I was hunting for something in the attic at my mum's house when I came across this bag full of cine films. "There must have been about 30 of them."
