The Duke of York, Prince Albert (later King George VI) and the Duchess of York (later Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother) get out of car. They are greeted by a man dressed in black robes, a minister of religion. They are introduced to other ministers as they walk into a church. The Duchess walks past some rows of schoolgirls. The Duke and Duchess shake hands with various people. The Duchess opens the doors to the building - presumably the hospital. Nice shot of a large crowd waving enthusiastically. | |
