Cambridge crew in training in Cambridge for the annual boat race. Full title reads: "FOR THE BOAT RACE - Cambridge crew are first to start active training for the annual 'Battle of the Blues'."
M/S A very cold looking day in the Cambridgeshire countryside. The Cambridge crew carry their boat to the waters edge. They are all dressed in shorts and T-shirts, an older man (possibly the trainer) helps them.
M/S The boat is placed in the water and they climb in and prepare themselves. We see that quite a number of the crew members are wearing quite thick scarves. One member wearing glasses in the forefront looks towards the camera and smiles.
M/S The boat and the crew drift down the river. A man walks by on the opposite river bank and turns to look. There are also some large looking buildings in the background (possibly university buildings).
Good M/S of the crew carrying their boat out the boat house heading towards the river.

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 images taken from inside Buchenwald Concentration Camp after its Liberation show us what it was like; it tells us what happened and forces us to remember.
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.
