Colour scenes of London from the Royal Show to Marble Arch to Buckingham Palace.

This film shows early colour shots of London. The first scenes appear to show scenes from a Royal Show. There is a brief shot of the Royal pavilion and then of displays of agricultural machinery and of the crowds.There are many street scenes in the film. These show few appreciable landmarks, concentrating on the traffic scenes. They show London buses, motor cars, motor cycles and, negotiating a major junction that may be Piccadilly Circus, a horse and cart. There is a shot of Marble Arch. Taking advantage of the Dufay colour, the film shows the flower beds in a London Park as well as a shot of the river and of a Scots Guard outside Buckingham Palace. There are further shots showing street scenes and flower beds. The last scene shows people on horseback, riding through a park
