Very obedient dogs demonstrate tricks and stunts they've learnt at the R.A.F. Police Dog Training School .
Various shots of Alsatians doing an obstacle course - the dogs jump over a fence, through a hoop of fire, through a tunnel, before bursting though a paper screen. Low angle shot of the Alsatians and their masters - the men march, the dogs walk to heel.
M/S of an Alsatian climbing up a narrow ramp. Low angle shot of the dog walking over a tightrope. M/S of two officers, one with a clip board, watching the stunt. The dog gingerly walks down the steep ramp at the other side.
Various shots of two dogs completing the obstacle course. The dogs leave from different ends and have to pass each other in the tunnel. Various shots of an Alsatian scrambling over a wall. Low angle shot of two dogs passing each other on a steep double sided ramp.
C/U of a man placing a raw egg in a dog's mouth. C/U of a high ranking officer. The dog has to walk over the tightrope without breaking the egg in it's mouth. The observing officers appear to be marking the dog's performance. The dog's trainer cracks open the egg and feeds it to the dog as a reward. L/S of a battalion of dog trainers marching with their animals.
According to the narrator, all the stories in this issue were also supposedly filmed at the 1962 Royal Tournament - this is confusing as paperwork suggest they were filmed at different locations...
(I think the idea is that this is Pathe's version of an outdoor Royal Tournament, with contributions from around the country - SL.) There is much documentation on file. Cuts exist - see separate record.
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.
