Description: After a customer accidentally drops a £5 note in the pub, it embarks on a whistle-stop tour of local businesses. Passing through the hands of a tobacconist, a garage owner and even a dentist, it finally finds its way back to to the bar till. The customer rushes back to reclaim it, relieved that the fake note has not gone into circulation, unaware that it has kept the local economy going in the meantime. There is a brief glimpse of Chigwell Road, Woodford Bridge and the exterior of the White Hart public house. The garage shown in the film is Limes Garage in Fencepiece Road, Barkingside. There is a Henry Hughes van parked in the garage yard. The dentist is in Lea Bridge Road, Leyton and the bakery in Stratford.

This film received the principal prize at the 1948 Scottish Amateur Festival. The 'White Fiver' was introduced by the Bank of England in 1793 and remained relatively unchanged until 1945, when a metal thread was introduced on the £5 note as a security feature. The printed black and white notes were replaced from 1957 onward by new, two-sided notes.
