Honouring Their Patron Saint

Always prepared, boy scouts celebrate St George's Day at Westminster Cathedral.

Non-Fiction 1930 1 mins Silent

Overview

Always prepared, the smartly-uniformed Scouts march proudly through London streets and on to Westminster, in honour of England's patron saint, St George. Calendar customs and predictable events were the bread-and-butter of newsreels like Topical Budget, who never could resist a crowd - or a display of British patriotism for that matter! This item was produced just one year before the demise of the 'Great British Newsreel' in 1931.
