Summary

Pathe synopsis: A powder and polish for Rastus and Terrapin - and a special tape-recording by William, the leather-backed toad. That’s what Pic cameramen found when they visited the Surrey home of international herpetologist Captain Edwards. He’s been collecting snakes and reptiles for 38 years; and we see him setting off for a lecture tour, with Trudy the alligator travelling in style on the back seat of the car.
