Title: Carry on Round the Window
Along a suburban street a pair of hands hold up a film clapperboard. The clapperboard disappears and a man walk into the drive of one of the houses. A second clapperboard over the shoulder of the man. The film changes to show the man standing on the driveway followed by a face and another clapperboard.
Inside the house the man, played by George Theaker, is taken into a living room by a woman. Around the room members of the Darlington Cine Club prepare to shoot a scene from this production using a video camera.
A young woman sits on seat opposite George, the scene is filmed several times from both hers and George’s point of view. Another clapperboard and an older woman now sitting beside the younger one.
Another clapperboard and the woman holding it trying to get out of shot running around the room frantically.
The older woman points shouting ‘Don’t Come Back’ as George rushes to the door. The scene is repeated. Tea and cake being brought in for the crew to enjoy.
End title: Carry-on Darlington Movie Makers
The film ends on the ‘Don’t Come Back’ scene being filmed again and many of the crew laughing.
