"I walked down the street and there were signs up everywhere... Room To Let; No Niggers, No Blacks, No Irish, No Dogs" Over fifty years ago Mr O Neil left the Caribbean to start a new life in the UK. Now retired, the 76-year-old goes to his local community gym in west London every day. During his three hour work-outs, he shares his memories, stories and opinions with anyone who cares to listen. And even those who don't. A simple portrait of a very unusual, ordinary man.
