BBC Rewind: Man lives in home teetering over Norfolk cliff

Archive footage showed a homeowner reluctant to move even as his house teetered on the edge of a cliff.

Parts of Henry Pamphlett's home in Overstrand, Norfolk, were seen tumbling to the ground in the footage, broadcast in February 1967.

He said the council had offered to rehome him but the property in question had "no sanitation".

"I am frightened and it's beginning to get that I don't sleep good and I don't eat good," he told a BBC reporter.
