They smile as they pass the camera. C/U of woman opening the bonnet of one of the cars whilst a little girl sits in the drivers seat. The mother explains to her daughter the workings of the car’s engine (!) C/U of the little girl being shown how to move the steering wheel. C/U of the little girl’s foot on the accelerator. M/S of the woman and daughter sitting in the car - an early dodgem or bumper car. The car moves off. Another shot of people driving around the track. Short section - incomplete. Was an item in Eve’s Film Review issue number 592. Note: although intertitles state that the cars are on the pier - looks more like they are on the promenade. FILM ID:
