Description:

"Amateur filmmaker and cinema historian H.A.V. Bulleid presents this story of young love blossoming in the city, only to be interrupted by a trip to the country. As love blossoms between a young couple, every moment apart thinking of each other. Finally meeting again for a trip to the cinema, they share a pleasant moonlit stroll, full of anticipation for the day ahead. Catching a bus the following morning, the pair disembark to find a secluded spot in the countryside. Moving over increasingly rocky terrain, they come to a small mountain lake. But in striving for a better vantage point, the man slips and hits his head on a rock. With his face covered in blood and struggling to see, he and the girl must find their way out of seclusion and back to the city" (EAFA Database).

When Lord Bink - 'an extremely clever scientist' - creates a concoction which gives Clyde the Dog the gift of human speech, he gets a little more than he bargained for, as the dry wit and scathing tongue of Clyde wreaks havoc in the genteel world of Mrs Gatty's garden" (EAFA Database).
