Ilford was founded in 1879 in the English town of the same name. They are B&W royalty in the photography industry thanks to their 140-year heritage and their support for photographers with chemicals and development as well as film. In the mid-20th Century they produced several well-regarded camera lines (including one given to Princess Elizabeth that was later stolen!) but today they are focused on producing the best films and development processes that they can.

Great film especially for a beginner
This was the first roll of film I bought and I'm very pleased with the results. It feels like a great film for a beginner, is forgiving in terms of exposure, has beautiful contrast, and a grainy style. I feel it's perfect for architecture and street photography.

Versatile all-rounder
HP5 is a really great choice as an all-rounder. It's very forgiving of under and over exposure, making it an ideal choice for varied scenes, and a good option for scenes with high dynamic range.
It wouldn't be a film I'd reach for if I was doing serious landscape photography, but for street, travel photos, snapshots or gigs, it's ideal.

Grainy / moody B&W
Could be the camera I used (Ektar) but on the grainier side - liked it in flash / indoors
Everyone loves this film, I don't use it a lot but have found it's great for gigs when pushed to 1600

Great value
Really enjoyed using this film. I'm very much an amateur but some snaps came out pretty darn tooting.
Lessons learned from me is to use a flash with it inside, even even well lit and to keep a steady hand when taking landscapes
