Title - Jubilee Jamboree Indaba Moot Sutton Coldfield 1957 The film opens with a town street. There are people making their way long the sidewalks while traffic moves up and down the streets. Some of the buildings in town are decorated with Union Jacks and other patriotic decorations. At the Jamboree, scouts and other participants can be seen entering the campgrounds. There are displays of flowers and shrubbery which have been cultivated into specific designs for the festivities. There are many smaller camps within the overall campsite which display names of various troupes or regions including Moisson and Volgelenzang. In the middle of the camp there is a large clock placed on top of a structure of a globe. There are more gate displays for smaller camps, and the scouts can be seen setting up and filling the large field with their tents. After the set up, the scouts have a meal in a large food tent. Leaders can also be seen posing for pictures, and there are more signs for the different camps including Copenhagen, Moisson, etc, as well as Exhibitions and the Theatre. There are framed gates at the entrance of each smaller camp made up of different art work and displays of patches including the gate for the Central Yorkshire troupe. Additionally, there is a large piece of machinery which drills a hole in the ground - most likely to be used as a water source later on. Title - Swaps! Boys from different scouting troupes can be seen exchanging small trinkets and keepsakes. Title - 1st August Opening Day All of the different scouting groups, both girls and boys, as well as representatives from different countries, are present for the opening day.

Title - The Queen and Air Scout Show Scouts and other spectators, making up a large crowd, are set up around the field to see the Queen and the Air Show following her appearance. In addition, one of the spectators has a Bolex camera set up on a tripod to film the festivities. People can be seen rushing to get to the show before it starts. The Queen makes an appearance on a platform in front of the crowd. All the scouts on the field are in formation and salute the Queen. The groups then march around the field, and there are many shots of the crowd as well. The Air Show begins and large gliding planes fly through the sky. Some of them can be seen landing on the field and are pushed out of the way by the scouts. Remote controlled airplanes are also used. After the show, the Queen and Prince Philip come out of a tent and make their way to a car to leave the Jamboree. The tent is surrounded by spectators, many with cameras, hoping to catch an up-close view of the royals. Prince Philip stops briefly to shake a few hands before the two depart.
