We then see a view of a village with a church and war memorial. Two women stand in the road and pose for the camera as it pans past. After a view of a river we cut to a group of people standing outside a hotel in Drotwich Spa. They have gathered to see off a fox hunt. Members of the hunt are seen with horses and hounds preparing to set off. Next we see a view of High Street, Oxford. Three women walk on the street and then stand outside the University church of St Mary the Virgin. They are then see walking away from the camera towards a hotel on the corner of Turl Street.
