Cuts (rushes, out takes) for stories in Colour Pictorial - CP 352. The original stories are also on Pathe Master tape *PM0149*.
01:49:32 to 01:57:26 cuts for story RACING FILM STAR in CP 352. Various shots in the as Richard Wyler changes places with a rider on a motorbike, presumably in a relay race. Several shots of the motorcycle race, all pretty similar to the cut story. Some rather comical M/Ss show spectators pretending to watch the bikes whizz past and move their heads as they go - none are very convincing! M/Ss of Richard putting on a leather mouth-mask (oo-er) and preparing to set off on his bike from the pit. 01:58:32 to 01:58:47 more racing shots.
01:57:26 to 01:58:30 stray sequence from ARMY RAILWAY in CP 354. See separate records for complete story and 'official' cuts. Sequence shows a steam train being waved across a level crossing by a soldier.
01:58:47 to 02:01:20 cuts for story SICILY in CP 352. Nice M/S of a young girl sewing part of a tapestry; not in cut story. Several shots of the two local girls in traditional costume.

Some brief shots of the holiday camp show women sunbathing in bikinis. Brief shot of crates of fruit set out in a street market.
