London.

General views of Middlesex Hospital and crowds waiting outside to see Sir Winston Churchill emerge. C/U of sign reading 'Private Patients Entrance' above the door. Lady Clementine Churchill goes into the hospital, greeted by officials. An ambulance pulls up outside the entrance.

Churchill, looking rather frail, is carried down the entrance steps in a chair by four ambulance men. He waves to the crowds, cigar in hand. Police hold the crowds back. Photographers crowd around the ambulance and take pictures. The ambulance sets off.

At Churchill's home, 28 Hyde Park Gate, we see more crowds and policemen gathered. Lord Moran and another man go inside. The ambulance arrives and Churchill is carried out of the ambulance in his chair. They stop on the steps of the building and pose for cameras.

BRITISH PATHÉ'S STORY
Before television, people came to movie theatres to watch the news. British Pathé was at the forefront of cinematic journalism, blending information with entertainment to popular effect. Over the course of a century, it documented everything from major armed conflicts and seismic political crises to the curious hobbies and eccentric lives of ordinary people. If it happened, British Pathé filmed it.

Now considered to be the finest newsreel archive in the world, British Pathé is a treasure trove of 85,000 films unrivalled in their historical and cultural significance.

British Pathé also represents the Reuters historical collection, which includes more than 136,000 items from the news agencies Gaumont Graphic (1910-1932), Empire News Bulletin (1926-1930), British Paramount (1931-1957), and Gaumont British (1934-1959), as well as Visnews content from 1957 to the end of 1984. All footage can be viewed on the British Pathé website.
