Cuts (rushes, out takes) for stories featured in Colour Pictorial - CP 665. The original stories are also on Pathe Master tape *PM0407*.
Cuts for story WILDFOWL TRUST in CP 665. Similar footage to cut story; ducks, swans and geese are seen at the Wildfowl Trust in Slimbridge.
Cuts for story SWINGING LONDON in CP 665. Similar footage to cut story of brickwork and buildings being demolished. Several different shots of swinging London (rather nicer than the ones in the cut story); young people walking around the streets; clothes shops; a cameraman sets up a shot in the street (we see film camera - probably not Pathe) and adjusts a group of young swingers before filming; girls looking through records outside a shop; C/Us of several shop signs including John Michael and Bazaar. Some good street scenes in these cuts.
Cuts for story PINK FLOYD in CP 665. Similar footage to cut story; members of band Pink Floyd wander about fields, lie on the grass and pretend to have a shoot-out. The first sequence shows Roger Waters and Nick Mason having their shoot-out, and seem to be trying not to collapse into giggles. Roger Waters lies on his front on the grass, twitches from the groin a few times and rolls over.... very interesting.
