Notes

This brief documentary-style film presents the status of Great Britain near the end of the Second World War by means of a visual diary for a baby boy born in September, 1944. Narration explains to "Timothy" what his family, his neighbours and fellow citizens are going through as the war nears its end, and what problems may remain for new Englishmen like Timothy to solve.
