This is the coding for all Jessop's films
The R stands for 120 film
It is the same as the K17 (in 135) and u can use standard b&w process.

Subject: Jessop/R17 Film Mystery

Hi everyone.

I recently purchased a used Lomo 6x6 camera; inside was a half-spent roll of
film which I went ahead and wound to the end. The only markings on it are a
logo for Jessop's, the expected "EXPOSED", "120", "ISO100/DIN21", and the
cryptic "R17" in bold type. Who (most likely in the United Kingdom) could
tell me what kind of film this is? More to the point, which process do I use
to develop it? Curiosity is getting the better of me, and an Internet search
has provided nothing but more questions.

Thank you in advance!

Darin
