| Description: | NEWS IN A NUTSHELL - COMMON RIDING IN SELKIRK Selkirk, Scotland. Various shots of a vast crowd moving slowly through the crowded street. This is the Common Riding procession against English oppressors traditionally held in Selkirk, Scotland. A man on small stage waving flag skilfully, crowds watching. Dr. Muir receives freedom of the Borrough. He takes a bristle, dips it in wine and passes it over his lips. He then makes a speech (natural sound). Crowds cheer. | |
