Summary: Penge Festival 1986, Queen Comes to Penge, Subway, Superday, Penge 87, Crystal Capers

Opening Title; Penge Festival 1986

Two young children are sitting in a white, red and blue decorated pram. Above it a homemade banner states St Paul's Toddlers - a mother makes finishing touches to the sailor boy outfit one of them is wearing and is watched by her friend who stands patiently by.

Various scenes on the beginning of carnival day, participants wander around, organisers, clipboard in hand, cover the arrangements for the day and talk to police. A green sign reads 'Another Bromley Clean and Green scheme Canal Walk'. A red and pink decorated float lorry has Samantha, Penge May Queen 1986, emblazoned on the front of the vehicle as it sits parked on the road. The Royal Oak pub sign is seen, which is presumably where the festival starts from; a clown amuses or terrifies a young boy!

The carnival is about to begin (Oakfield Road/Anerley Road) with a marionette dancing troop poised.

These films were made by Sally and Leonard Blomstrand of Versailles Road, Anerley, using a Sony video recorder. The little boy in the sailor outfit at the start of the Penge Festival sequence is their son Nicholas, who also features in the Queen Comes to Penge along with his cousin James (in push chair) and their Great Aunt Gwen and Great Uncle Peter Bell, proprietors of Bestwear drapers of Penge High Street. The Subway Superday section features Crystal Palace Community Association stalwarts Mo Farrer and Stella Boyes, along with personalities from The Crystal Palace Foundation - Treasurer Aubrey Thompson (collecting entrance money) and Keith Wyncoll (the intrepid fire eater).
