| Description: | “Rushmoor Arena. 50,000 kiddies happy voices almost drown "noise of battle" and the massed bands, at first dress rehearsal at this year's better-than-ever Aldershot Tattoo.” Rushmoor Arena, Aldershot, Hampshire. Princess Elizabeth (later Queen Elizabeth II), Duchess of York (later Queen Mother) and Prince Albert, Duke of York (later King George VI) walk, presumably toward their seats in the Royal Box. LS of children massed in the seats, panning across to massed bands marching across the Arena. Shots of huge crowds in the stands. There appears to be a reenactment of a battle, with a line of infantry and cavalry behind them. Then cut to more massed bands. Pan across children again, then the future royal family departing by car. | |
