L/S of a countryside scene. A river flows towards the camera, mountainous landscape in the background. High angle shot of a woman and child walking across a primitive wooden bridge which passes over the river. "High in the mountain pastures runs the quiet brook..." Low angle shot showing river passing over rocks, very tall bridge seen in the background. Various other scenic shots in this mountainous landscape. Bridges, streams, forest. "The brooklet finds its way downwards, gathering strength as it follows the valley pathways..."
L/S of a waterfall. "Where no foot could go, the stream goes on - over rocky courses and tumbling often in falls..." High angle shot of water cascading over rocks. M/S of large amount of water tumbling over rocks. "And so it winds its way to the lowlands; now a broad river, flowing evenly toward the sea..." High angle of a valley landscape with large river running through it. Another view of the landscape.

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.
