  • "Off License" in the title should read Off Licence.

    The piece also includes shots of the Ind Coope beer, "Long Life".

    Also seen are shots of Watney's Brown Ale, McEwan's Export Ale, and boxes labelled "Harvey's of Bristol", presumably containing their famous sherry "Bristol Cream".

British Pathe captured many extraordinary events on film over its 80 year history but sometimes the cameras were switched on when tragedy struck.
