Summary
MOVIETONE CARD TITLE: School Days Remembered. DESCRIPTION: On the eve of his 87th birthday, Harrow’s most famous old boy, Sir Winston Churchill, got a wonderful reception. Forty years on, well, rather more than that for Sir Winston, visiting Harrow, his old school, once again. Earlier that day, we had a look round and saw the old fourth form room, where the young Churchill was put in the third (or lowest) division of it, and stayed there for some time! If he wasn’t very distinguished at Harrow, he certainly made up for that, later! SHOTLIST: Key scene. GV field. GV street. GV Winston Churchill (2 shots). GV boys go into school (2 shots).
