More about this scene

A tranquil backwater off Hickling Broad shows privately-owned yachts at rest among the reeds. A mother is attending to two youngsters, while another child crosses from the boat to the dinghy, a potentially hazardous leap. That was 1965: today the wearing of a lifejacket would be automatic.
