Summary
NoS Summary - the change in size of women’s swimsuits - they just get smaller and smaller!
British Pathe synopsis (Incomplete) - "But for all that, our hearts go out to the true sportsman who alone and unaided battles with the Channel!" Animated sequence of a man swimming along the surface of the sea. We are given an underwater view which shows he is cheating - he is attached to a submarine which is aiding him through the water.
Researcher Comments
British Pathe Note: the animator probably would have been Joe Noble.
