This film was shot from the balcony of the Empire cinema and shows the procession travelling up Hertford Street and then turning right into High Street.

Always fascinating to watch these old films. Hopefully the 'modern version' will be a bit better in 2012 than it was this year.

Fantastic! Despite advances in Finances and technology the costumes and floats look better than those in recent times!
