Description

The film opens with scenes from a wedding, the opening titles are only partly visible but it appears to be 'Annette and Gordon's Big Day'. We see the newlyweds and their guests outside posing for photos, they all look like they are having fun and they lark about. We also see them sat formally to eat at the reception. The next title reads 'Part 1 of The Bandit' and miscellaneous scenes follow of family and friends having fun in the countryside. There are shots of two little dogs playing and a group of people playing tennis. There are fun scenes where older people and a young boy play on swings and a group of adults play on a roundabout and one flies off. There is a lot of messing about, they wear cowboy hats and sombreros and play fight in the grass and a man runs off with a lady in a wheelbarrow.
