Raymond Newell - The Popular West End Baritone In “Dear Old England“ (1936)

Raymond Newell sings “Dear Old England“ beside the piano. Various shots of the “popular West End baritone“ as he sings his song. Shots of the glorious British countryside are cut into the song. There are also shots of battleships at sea which seems rather bizarre. Note: there is some bad “slipping“ on the Digibeta copy during the pastoral sequence. FILM ID: A VIDEO FROM BRITISH PATHÉ.
