Description |
Short film in which children make a 'Guy' effigy for bonfire night. They stuff a sack with newspapers, place on a head and dress the figure in a hat and coat. The children collect money from passers by on the street, buy a box of fireworks and head off down an alley to make a bonfire. The film ends with scenes from a royal visit to Liverpool Town Hall. |
