Just up the frog

Here's a bit of pure nostalgia which I'm posting just because it's good.
I was looking at the Rock Faux-lies thread and thought this might qualify as I had a vague memory that it was performed in the film by a school band. But I'm not sure that's right and perhaps it was just played over this sequence.
But it's not only a great performance of a great song, it takes me back to the days of proper red buses with conductors and open platforms. And cheerful Cockney teenagers. Luvverly.

That would be
the loveable Cockney scamp Marie McDonald McLaughlin Lawrie or, as she prefers to be known now, Lulu Kennedy-Cairns. Or just plain Lulu to you and me.
Very Please Sir
no-one in that class is under 25.
Under 25...
...Lulu was under 25 then, I'd think.
Born 1948
Fillum 1967. That makes her 19 in the clip. Old enough for university.
LOOK...LOOK...13 SECONDS IN!!
At the back, over Lulu's right shoulder, dressed in a black jacket and matching shirt... IT'S DAVID HEPWORTH! It is!
You, sir, are a child actor of no repute, and I claim my £5.00.
Now, searching for Helena Handcart... she always sat at the back of the class also, brainy kid she was, but perhumps she was ill and absent that day?
And that bloke...
from Emmerdale - "We don't know, sir..."
Hey?
Hey?
