"There's nothing there original now"
In this 1985 documentary, Tommy Letton remembers Tiger Bay being demolished around him in 1963-64, and mourns the loss of the community there.
Born in 1901, Tommy spent 40 of his 84 years selling fish from a barrow around Tiger Bay. Known as Uncle Tom, his life spans the glory and decline of the Cardiff docks.
