1976: A Morning With the Fruit and Veg Men | Look Stranger | World of Work | BBC Archive
Getting up at four o'clock in the morning is for most people a rare experience.

Rene Cutforth spends a day with Fred in a world of pawpaws, pineapples, and carrots from California. Clip taken from Look Stranger, originally broadcast on BBC Two, 28 November, 1976.
