- Summary
- MOVIETONE CARD TITLE: Health Hydro. DESCRIPTION: Brighton’s been one of Britain’s leading health resorts for more than two centuries. Now the Metropole Health Hydro offers a thousand treatments a day - seven days a week. If you need sauna baths, steam cabinets, underwater massage or physiotherapy to relieve life stresses and strains you’ll find it here. And highly-skilled staff to dish out the punishment. The Hydro opens with a fizzing champagne party, and what better way of recovering than by staying on for a cure? SHOTLIST: GV from pier of Brighton promenade.
