William Alwyn was born William Alwyn Smith, and composed a Derby Day Overture (Derby Day is a famous painting by William Frith) and The History of Mr Polly Suite (novel by H G Wells).
The Smith information was on the first line of the Wiki entry I looked at. So I had no knowledge of the training film (or, as it happens, that the Suite was from a film score). So we both learn and everyone wins!
Over to you for 'B'.
