Description |
Mixed footage including views from the Isle of Man ferry entering Douglas, and shots of the town and sea. Scenes from Blackpool beach, pier and promenade, with people swimming and paddling in the sea, and a female circus performer balancing on top of a pole. Scenes from a park (Stanley Park?) show the boating lake and an aeroplane overhead, also dodgem cars and people laughing and posing for the camera. There is extensive footage of a hunt meet and of the hunt underway, with many views of the countryside (location is unclear); and finally shots of a suburban street and garden in the snow. |
