Stephen Tall was bemoaning the paucity of videoes of Jeremy Thorpe on the web. This made me recall the excellent British Pathe News site which has loads of old films of Thorpe plus other gems from the past:
Jeremy Thorpe becomes new Liberal party leader
1970 Thorpe interview shots (mute)
1968 Thorpe's (first) wedding
Thorpe at a 1967 dinner for Kosygin, Russian Foreign Minister
Thorpe On a 1969 Oxfam walk
and this gem:
Miss Laura Bonham-Carter marries Mr Joseph Grimond
and these silent films:
Gladstone's funeral
Asquith arriving in Newcastle and Miss Asquith marries Prince Bibesco
"The worst is over" - Lloyd George in Manchester
You can search for more on the site.
