Description

A compilation of scenes from the Hopwood Family. A large group of family members spend Christmas together packed in to a small sitting room, there are domestic scenes in the kitchen as food is prepared and the washing up is done. We see a couple in the garden, he does the gardening while she puts out the washing. There are family wedding scenes and we see the family out and about on various daytrips. They take a trip to the zoo where we see various animals, and there are countryside scenes where a large group of family members have picnics, sunbathe and go for walks. There are beach scenes too, where the family relax on the beach and eat ice creams on the seafront.
