Southampton Speaks

Help with sound clips

		Sometimes the Manageress would go with her girls on board to do the laundry while the ship was at sea; I approached my mother and I never heard the end of it			When I joined, the film stars were on every voyage; I have never been the same since I fell into the arms of Kirk Douglas one afternoon when the ship was rolling

Southampton Speaks brings to life Southampton in the early 20th century. Listen to sound clips from people who worked, played and lived near the port, and on the high seas. These clips come from the SouthamptonOral History Archive.
