Description |
Before the flower show opens, men work to construct the site, and displays are set up inside the marquees; then the 'Silver Jubilee Show' opens with floral displays, and activities such as sheepdog trials and showjumping to entertain the crowds. There are also aerial views of the show ground before the show closes and the site is cleared. The reel ends with general views of crowds on the seafront. |
