I really enjoy watching old footage of the town but this one has to be the funniest I have come across on multiple levels.

With the commentary surprised there was never a 'Carry On Promettes' film

Quite striking how relatively little the promenade has changed in all these years (aside from the Eyesore360 of course).

What on earth was a man doing holding a baby in 1956?

He should have been in the 'men only' section at the pub whilst the wife was at home cooking him dinner (and looking after the baby, obvs.)

Perhaps he was ringing the wife to ask where the hell she was. Didn't she know the pubs were open?
