as an "impression of life and opinion in the back streets of a Northern City in 
the morning". The city in question is never identified: scenes were shot in 
Manchester, Salford, Stockport and Liverpool then combined as if capturing a 
single half-day in a single location. Because the film is impressionistic rather 
than journalistic, this artistically licensed deceit is easy to accept. While a 
minority of viewers disliked the film, it was hailed for bringing television 
documentary to a new level of artistic ambition, worthy of film antecedents. And 
in fact, after its broadcast <CITE>Morning in the Streets</CITE> became part of the 
non-theatrical documentary repertory, available for years for 16mm bookings.
