-
- The death penalty has been carried out in almost all societies and although these images from WWI and WWII are unsettling, they still provide a raw account of events from a certain time.
-
- The Duke of Edinburgh has many talents, but it is his unique way with words that often receives the most attention.

"The moustachioed driver (John Bolster?)" - yes, that's John Bolster. His car is an Austin Healey 100-6.
"The man watches a racing driver (Roy Salvadori?)" - yes, that's Roy Salvadori. Salvadori is driving an historic Austin Healey "Frogeye" Sprite, one of the first two Sprites to be registered for the British roads in 1958. (This allows you to reduce this clip's current age range of 1950-59).
Brilliant - thanks very much. Some good research on the Sprite. Can anyone narrow the date down further?
