Cuts for story THE VARIETY CLUB in CP 626. Similar footage to cut story; children in the hydrotherapy pool at Great Ormond Street Hospital. Sid James arrives at a hospital and kisses two nurses; Kenneth More is seen with nurses next to a Christmas tree, stroking a nurse's face with the hand of a toy golly. John Alderton (or Jimmy Tarbuck - it's difficult to tell with the false white beard) in Father Christmas costume kisses a nurse; Ingrid Bergman in Santa costume; Ian Hendry hands a large present to a blonde in a Christmas outfit and signs autographs for nurses. Excellent shot as Kenneth More kisses a matron then looks rather disgusted!
Children climbing ropes at Hindleap, East Sussex; more footage of the hydrotherapy pool. C/U of Variety Club raffle tickets being sold; man mouthing "Thanks very much" then looking at film in the Pathe cutting room. Various shots of guests chatting at a luncheon; Billy Walker with the boys in Hindleap.
More guests at the luncheon; one could be George Burns (?). A Variety Club car arrives at the children's home with the projector; several shots of a man lacing up a film projector. Clapperboard snaps in front of Lord Mountbatten; he goes through his speech (mute). Ian Hendry (as Father Christmas) arrives outside the Southern Railwaymen's Home For Children in a Variety Club car; inside he distributes presents. Arthur Haynes (sp? Haynes) arrives at a hospital and kisses a nurse smack on the lips, then turns and pouts at the camera.
Adrenaline seekers from the past have left an indelible mark on the Pathe archive. Some were so dangerous they even lost their lives. Here are 10 top daredevils.
Terrorism is nothing new. The Pathe archive has a vast collection of material related to terrorist attacks dating back to 1919 right through to the 2005 London bombings.
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.
