The Smallest Public House In Britain (Outtakes)

1963 , Bury St Edmunds (Suffolk)

Cat no. 226308

Outtakes from Anglia Television reporter Chris Rainbow's interview with the landlord and pub regulars of Bury's 'The Nutshell'.

A collection of unedited outtakes from Chris Rainbow's report on Bury St Edmunds' The Nutshell, the smallest pub in East Anglia and probably the smallest in Britain. Rainbow delivers his introductory piece to camera, talking about the building and interviewing the landlord, Mr Cracknell. Rainbow's introduction is then re-recorded multiple times as an audio 'wild track', followed by another interview with Mr Cracknell in close-up. The landlord talks about his regulars, how they manage the space, his collection of guns and his certainty that the Nutshell is the smallest pub in Britain. Regulars Sydney and Fred are also interviewed, talking about why they frequent the Nutshell, and ranting and raving at each other on all manner of topics, from market stalls to marriage. The outtakes conclude with a close-up of Rainbow delivering his concluding piece to camera.
