British Pathe films have being uploaded to YouTube. For example if you search for "British Pathe 1944" you will find a lot of interesting films like the following.

There are some Kangaroos at about the 4:22 and 5:30 mark of this film.

Default Mine would drip oil on the camera

Hi Scott

Always enjoy videos of people showing off their prized vehicles. Like the starting bit of driving over the camera. But all I could think of if I tried this with any of my trucks they would decide to dribble oil on the camera lenses.

Cheers Phil

I did notice at 9.06 (clip No2) a NSW historic registered Dodge in US Navy livery, and sitting next to it (left of Navy Dodge) is a vehicle that I recognize from our part of the world Hunter Valley NSW, some really nice vehicles in attendance, I've also looked at google earth at some of the locations, cheers Dennis
