A woman turns a baby doll over to dress it - it is rather spooky and bizarre as the doll is very realistic - almost looks like a dead baby. The woman talks, as if to the baby, but it does seem to be a doll - who knows?! M/S of three of the baby dolls all dressed up carrying umbrellas. A doll dressed up as a traffic warden or lollipop lady holds a stick with a lollipop at the end whilst a doll in a car is propelled past. Very odd!
C/U of a doll dressed as Little Red Riding Hood (I presume). Doll in a sailors outfit stands up whilst a wind up toy teddy bear moves around. M/S of the sailor doll and a doll dressed in girly frock and hat are posed as if having a conversation. Another doll is posed with legs akimbo watching another doll on a swing. C/U of doll with parasol. C/U of doll in pyjamas with a "Wee Willie Winkie" hat on. C/U of a baby doll laid in a cradle. All looks a bit odd by today's standards. Paper records state that this is in Germany.

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.
10 telling images selected from British Pathé's extensive WWI footage. 'The war to end all wars' was a war without parallel: over 70 million military personnel were involved and over 17 million people died.
British Pathé filmed the 20th Century's biggest names, some of them before they even became famous. Click through and guess who these soon-to-be celebrities were when first captured by our cameras.
Private UFOs, flying bicycles, motorised wheels - Pathe's archive is awash with fabulous films of canny and creative transport inventions.Take a look at some of the more unusual but ingenious ideas that people have had to beat the traffic.
