LS. GV. Rowley Bristow Orthopaedic Hospital (2 shots). CU. plaque - St.Nicholas Home 1907. CU. Sign - Bristow Hospital. MS. line of Pressmen. MS. CU. line of nurses, Sir Gordon Richards with nurses, posing for press. Richards gets into car LS. Patients waving goodbye to car. MS. Interview with John Parsons: "I will spend three weeks at Worthing, and then back to Marlborough again, or I might pop over to Switzerland again for a week or ten days, anyway I'm going to Worthing first." John Parsons: "What are your plans?" Richards: "I can't say yet until I see how the old chassis goes after I've been on it a bit. But I am going to make up my mind with the next two weeks, you'll probably guess, but I can't say definitely." Nurse and Matron asked how their patient (Richards) behaved. Richards makes a few light hearted comments and the nurses laugh.

Note: good shots of press (cameramen) and nurses being giggly and matron speaking (appearing coquettish!)

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.
