Pluck and The World Plucks With You - The Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain Documentary

Pluck and The World Plucks With You : a glimpse inside the world of the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain

A documentary, made in 2003 by John Gidley. It features interviews with the various performers on tour in Cumbria, Yorkshire and elsewhere, together with some "in the studio" candid footage of the orchestra in Richard Durrant's studio for the making of the album "The Secret of Life".

This documentary features, Dave, Peter, Hester, George, Kitty, Will and Jonty. Richie, though performing at the start of the Orchestra's career, was taking time off for good behaviour, working with "Three Men and a Bass" at the time. Leisa was our reserve for around a decade and then stepped in full time when Kitty became unable to tour. Ben had not yet joined in 2003. We see quite a bit of Kitty and George, the founders of the orchestra in this footage.

This is an interesting glimpse of Ukulele Orchestra activities around twenty years ago. We see the genesis of Cakes and Buns and Sausage Rolls, Lenin on a Lamppost, Only Ewe, George's Duck Voice and a lot of innocent back-stage craziness.
