Newsreel-style footage of London in the 1930s. A narrator describes each shot. Shots of children leaving a boarding school, and a wide shot of the British Museum. Several shots from a zoo in Regent’s Park: bears fighting, peacocks, and a komodo dragon. Wide shots of a bustling Picadilly Circus, followed by shots of vendors on the street. A wide shit of Trafalgar square, including the National Gallery, St Martin’s, and Lord Nelson’s Column. Shots of the Admiralty building, and the Prime Ministers house on Dowling Street.
