Summary
Pathe synopsis: A visit to the home in Highgate, London, of one of England’s busiest fathers, film cameraman Charles Lagus. For off-duty he has to lend a hand with family chores like filling the babies’ bottles at mealtimes, every four hours; and besides his three-months-old daughter Caroline he has to contend with Benjamin, a beguiling little Malayan honey bear of the same age, and also a tame but none the less genuine flying squirrel from Nepal!
