    even my dad in the 1960's and 70's would go on holiday in a suit and tie!! His one concession to July heat, undoing his top button, removing his jacket and rolling up his shirt sleeves! I NEVER saw my dad in shorts!

      ​@@tango22ahI haven't worn jeans in 30+ years... always olive or camo BDU trousers (Black for "special occasions"). Never wear shorts in public either; I don't think it looks dignified...but that's just me.

    The narrator is Wilfrid Thomas. Well known in Australia as a singer, actor, radio broadcaster and narrator. Of Welsh descent he immigrated to Australia as a child. He narrated several Australian government films and can be seen in this film from the NFSA collection one acting along side Peter Finch in These Stars Are Mine
    His "posh" accent would have certainly been a consideration when he got the gig of narrating the official film of the Queen's 1954 visit to Australia. Queen In Australia also at the NFSA.
    And just from the other day on the NFSA channel "Canberra Today And Tomorrow" which had me searching for who it was.
    Searching for Wilfrid Thomas will show some of his recordings.
    It would be interesting to know how many other Pathe newsreels he narrated and did he travel to the UK for the narration or just send a tape recorded in Australia? In another Pathe Caravan film he was the chosen narrator.
