Unissued / unused footage - dates and locations may be unknown / unclear.



British Lapland Expedition Leave Bergen, Norway.



View from a ship as we approach a port with mountains in the background. Street scenes of busy harbour town (presumably Bergen) with lush hills in background. Vegetable market. Camper vans coming off ferry and driving through town. Street scene in picturesque residential area. High angle views looking over harbour and coastline - very pretty.



Two young men in bobble hats and a young woman at fish market, watching a man gut a fish (that's put me right off my sandwich, that has). People crowd round small tanks while a fishmonger picks out fish for them and hits them with a wooden stick. C/U of live fish flapping about and being knocked out.



The camper vans drive back through the town. Bobble -hatted group of young men and one girl walk around the town and look at buildings. Views of harbour with ferry at dock and smaller boats coming past. Shot of rigging of clipper ship. High angle view of harbour with yachts in dock. Pretty white-timbered house. A woman stops by the side of a rocky hill or mountain to look at the inscription carved in stone on the side - can only decipher the first word which is 'Edvard'. Nice scenic shot of lake surrounded by trees. Land Rover and camper vans driving through the town then being hoisted onto ferry by a crane.
