Summary
MOVIETONE CARD TITLE: Welcome in Wales?. DESCRIPTION: The rugged Pembrokeshire coast itself offers little welcome to an intruding force. But the question is whether Castlemartin welcomes the coming of German Panzers. Just before the Germans arrive we asked Castlemartin’s opinion. Surprisingly, in view of controversy, everyone we asked was ready to offer a welcome. SHOTLIST: Key scene. GV Pembrokeshire coast. MS road sign Castlemartin. LS road. LS church.
