Description

'Unidentified' - a boy is seen walking aimlessly around Birkenhead docks when a "UFO" appears [special effect created by punching a hole in the film]. The boy is seen running and jumping in slow motion, interacting with the ball of light. 'Fair Play' - a boy crosses the River Mersey by ferry to New Brighton. He visits the fairground and beach armed only with a one pound note, but manages to go on a donkey ride, see animals at the Woodland Zoo and enjoy rides on the fairground.
