"Fleet Street... we refer to it as 'The Street of Lies'."
Prominent trade union activist and 'unofficial king of the docks' Jack Dash has taken up a new career as a London tourist guide.
But will he bring politics into his guided tours?
"One of the most experienced and colourful public speakers the East End has ever produced... ...he discovered after 25 years as a militant docker nobody seemed to want to employ him."
"Jack realised that this was one industry where he could exploit his skills as a public speaker."
A self-styled London chauvinist, Jack is being trained by the top tour guide in London, Freddie Brampton.
"It's probably the first time in his life that Jack's employers have been completely satisfied."
Originally broadcast 3 June, 1971.
