Royal Spring Wedding - Black & White (1963)

Westminster Abbey, London. This looks like a short black & white version of the newsreel story. Some shots of the crowd, congregation and ceremony are missing. However, all the footage seen in this item is already seen in colour in the newsreel story. It may be that this was complete black & white copy of the story but had to be severed for various reasons - damage, shrinking etc. FILM ID: A VIDEO FROM BRITISH PATHÉ.
