The dwarfs are average size people wearing padded costumes and character heads, with Dopey smaller than the rest. Children and adults touch and hug the characters, including two traffic wardens. The actors wave to the camera as they walk off towards Gentleman’s Walk. The scenes are accompanied by the song "Heigh-Ho" from the Disney film. There are technical glitches in the video held by the archive. This brief video was made to be shown in a news story on Anglia Television early evening news / magazine programme About Anglia.
