Summary

Pathe synopsis: A picnic lunch on the lawn at the home of Mr John Stevens of Wellingborough, Northamptonshire, is quite likely to be a nervous occasion for guests. Simba the lion is quite tame and eats happily at the table - but you never know when he might start taking a more than passing interest in the guests.
