Intertitle: "ARMOURED CARS now replace mounted police during military raids".
M/S of a soldier standing beside an armoured car - in one hand he holds a pistol, he smokes a cigarette with the other. Various shots of a crowd of people running out of the way as an armoured car speeds past. It is not clear whether the crowd has been assembled to demonstrate the effectiveness of the new vehicles, or whether they are actually genuine demonstrators - soldiers are seen pushing people out of the way of the car. M/S of a tram passing armed soldiers standing in a wide street. M/S of a horse and cart and the armoured car passing a crowd on the pavement. Panning shot of a wide Dublin street with a large statue in the distance and the crowd on the pavement, soldiers and an armoured car are nearby. M/S of the armoured car passing the crowd - the boys and men amongst the crowd step gingerly forward to get a better look at the car. More shots of the car passing the crowd. It would seem that this public armoured car display is a show of strength on the part of the R.I.C.

The great politician and orator Winston Churchill left behind a sea of humourous quips and discerning quotes. We remember some of his finest epigrams and witty ripostes.
WW2 accounted for over 60m deaths and innumerable lives shattered. Pathé cameras took to land, sea and air to record the bloodshed. Here are the 10 bloodiest battles that were caught on film.
Life before health and safety laws; men worked at huge heights, balancing on girders and cranes all in order to help build the world's tallest skyscrapers.
Over its history, the Pathe cameras filmed a number of people who had committed heinous crimes. So in no particular order, these images show ten faces of truly evil men and women.
