Chimps’ Tea Party (1955)

London Zoo. A lovely sunny day. L/S Pub garden with tables and umbrellas. That’s what it looks like but is in fact the Fellows Enclosure at London Zoo. Keeper, Bill Peckett, brings chimps on lead to a table. Another keeper brings in tea for the chimps on a tray and Bill pours them all a cup of tea. M/S chimps messing around and cut to children laughing at their antics. Bill returns with cakes for them and then fruit. Then final shot is chimpanzees eating ice lollies with one of them putting their feet on table. FILM ID: A VIDEO FROM BRITISH PATHÉ. EXPLORE OUR ONLINE CHANNEL, BRITISH PATHÉ TV.
