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.

Sir Winston Churchill's leadership is crucially needed today.
Times have moved on really, politics is so different, his ways wouldn't work now.
@@lw3646 no but you you are very close to picking a hitler like character as leader... due to your failed immigrant policies and your disgusting 2 tier system wich focuses on your indegenious people instead of focusing on those damn immigrants
Queen Elizabeth's reign is now roughly equal to a human's average life expectancy.
I'm watching this historical footage from a bygone era and it still baffles my mind that the queen referenced in this clip is the same one today.
Wow!!!
Well said
Yep. Crazy and even Anne Frank wrote about her.
Don't you know she's immortal lol!
Emnh... yea...
60 years ago today, Winston Churchill resigned. British Pathé's contemporary newsreel tells the tale: ruclips.net/video/m_Uj_o1L-e0/видео.html
Why he was Born
67 now
@@Nik_hilll because his parents made him!
The proof that he saved democracy and Britain, came when he was voted out and stepped aside.
In 2025 it will be 70 years
God save Sir Winston!
Why is your the only person in here?
Underidodeidoideridodoo
winston light red
Louis what are you in here I thought that you are retired 🧐🧐🧐
@@tunistick8044 he's not louis
What a time to be alive, but not anymore. The shallow hell we have now is insufferable.
The Queen actually went to 10 Downing St, rather than the other way round. She was young and knew old Winston must have been suffering at the knees. That’s purely my supposition, but it seems clear from the pictures.
This is how Boris Johnson imagined his resignation.
very sad isn't it
😂😂
Too bad he is a toxic liar that sold the nation to foreign investors.
Boris is a clown
Boris is a pound shop Churchill
When receiving a knighthood actually meant something!
Maybe do a bit more research. There’s a long history of giving knighthoods to useless people. Friends of the powerful etc.
Well it was she who bestowed Blair the highest Knighthood possible.
@@deedee-tc4fh it's all a farce,and as corrupt as can be,look at this loser and failure Cameron,say no more
Amazing footage
He showed great respect to the Queen
Something about a British man yelling commentary at you is what I miss in the 2020s
No yelling here. Great diction delivered in an authoritative manner.
Churchill hitting his hat on the car roof at 1:28 will never not be funny.
Mind blowing how this generation is so illiterate and naive
Relatable 😂
Dear God, when will we ever see a man like that return ?
"He mobilized the English language; and sent it into battle!" A God of War! Where have these Men gone? We need them so!
The greatest of admirations from across the pond to the man who stood against tyranny and rallied the democracies to fight for freedom. As the architect of the special relationship, Churchill will always be remembered fondly in the land of his mother 🇬🇧🤝🇺🇸
Its similar to Hail Hitler and Praising Churchill 🧠👎
He may have been more of an inspiration to Americans than FDR
He was a murderer
He was even worse than hitler
He killed more than 30 million bengalis during bengal famine
Hello from the new jersey
Stood against tyranny while being a tyrant!!
God Bless Sir Winston. He did a lot for this world. And May God forgive his mistakes.
He did an inhuman crime.
@@jahidhosssin54456 You would probably be speaking German without him
@@jahidhosssin54456 May did some bad things but the UK and europe would be in a very bad state without churchill
May God Forgive his famine that caused Millions of Deaths? Absolutely not.
@@Yo-ps2pf yeah that was the thing im saying a western hero but a colonial villain
The Crown brought me here. It's surreal how similar the actors look.
As a lad I read Sir Winston Churchill’s great work ; “The History of the English Speaking Peoples”. I remember sitting with my family watching Sir Winston’s funeral on our black and white television in 1965.
Like all prophets, Sir Winston had enemies. Yet, as painful as it is, unpopularity is the lot of the prophet and is - in a fallen world - proof that the prophetic have spoken the inconvenient Truth.
As God raises up great men in times of discord, uncertainty and grave danger, the leadership of Sir Winston proved that he was Divinely-chosen to emancipate the world from tyranny. May our Lord give him eternal rest in Heaven.
He was a wicked man. Hopefully he repented before he died. Far from a prophet of the LORD. He was a freemasonic druid.
great leader and things could of been very different without him
Great Killer 👍
Human race progresses forward because somehow great people rise up to meet the needs of that time. Without them we can't imagine where we would be now. My favourite ones are Archimedes, Isaac Newton, George Washington, Abraham Lincoln,Albert Einstein and Winston Churchill
@@Nik_hilll Shut up. If it wasn't for Churchill you'd be in a German forced labour camp.
yes, life would have been different for 1 million bengal famine dead people!!
@@Nik_hilll average liberal response
The best wartime PM ever.
My mother was in her late teens and at teacher training college in 1955. She remembered Churchill well. Notice how the great man bows properly to the Royal couple - that's how it should be done!
Really sister did your mother see Churchill
Great Man 😂 for what fir Killing Innocent Peoples 🧠👎
No, she remembered hearing him on the radio and finding out when she went to teacher training college of his leaving Downing Street. Her fellow students would have talked about it and she discovered it then!
Really
UK great nation 🇬🇧👑🤝
Rest in heaven Queen
Rest in heaven Sir Winston
Britishers are looters who looted, ruled & colonized other countries.
There is no difference between British empire & Nazi Germany, even Nazi's & Hitler took inspiration from British to commit crimes.
Queen Elizabeth II, so pretty. RIP.
I love how prince phillip is like no you go first at 2:41 Edit:dam 21 likes
Churchill: Go on Man.
Phillip: no u.
Churchill: Alright Man, Thanks.
Churchill: Iam Racist and I did Genocide 🙏🧠👎
I noticed that too
No Nation has ever had a great leader like him since....
Even me as a middle eastern
am so thankful that Winston did his best to prevent any further destruction in our world
I cant believe what Adolf would have done if he took over the UK and the soviet union
Maybe today’s world is the one that got destroyed. Conflicts everywhere and no peace anywhere.
@@Burgerklauer spot on!
@@Burgerklauer yeah
Imagine what the case wiyld be if hitler won
Today’s world lies about peace but has to show some peaceful actions to maintain its existence
If nazi German took over the world
Everyone would be enslaved for the blue german race
This is a shity world we live in but I believe its the version we can achieve with our arrogance selfishness and stupidity
@@Burgerklauer I know!! Only 91% of the world lives in a country at peace! I fear if I step outside it'll all blow up in my face!!!1!
Stalin also not only churchill
No retirement has ever been more deserving
Love him or hate him, both equally valid, he changed the world as we know it
@Kerberos Shut
@Kerberos all he said was “shut” so how can you assume he wanted the Germans to win😂
Only Germans should hate him, for Dresden. No-one else has legitimate grievances.
@@denverbritto5606 The people of Bengal and the rest of the Indian subcontinent do.
@@INFEDnoX nonsense, he's always been popular in India. He was a great friend to us
I missed an opportunity to see so many sites when I was in London years ago. But I had fun nonetheless. A great city to visit. Stayed at a wonderful hotel.
An Amazing Personality, Sir Churchill. 👍
You must not be aware of this guy's opinion of India and responsibility in causing the famine.
@@AJ-jv1wh much debated history as to how responsible Churchill was.
Winston Churchill is legend of modern history
I agree mr Mahoney
Thanks Aaron
You must be a teacher of history Aaron I will hire you as my leader of opposition
The man who literally saved democracy, freedom and humanity.
not humanity
And caused famine in India
Naaa if it wasent for the Sovjet all of Europe would speak Germany and thats a fact !
@@MinuteSciMagicshorts Baloney. The Soviets almost folded like a cheap tent in '41. The German army was in the outskirts of Moscow. If it weren't for *massive* support from Britain and the US, they'd be speaking German in Moscow today. You can't save the world when you can't save yourself.
@@jshepard152 exactly
We need the same leadership and courage in politics today, winston was a spectacle of his time
Wov.. this Queen had dinner with Sir Winston Churchill.... i couldn't fathom. That's cool.
Boiled beef, carrots, mashed potato and gravy, followed by treacle tart and custard. They really knew how to live it up in those days.
History! The world misses so much leaders as Sir Winston Churchill!
The guy who is responsible for over 4 million death in India is considered as a hero.
Then u know indian is nothing 😏
@@takinoordinarykitty6961 I didn't get it.
Every good thing eventually comes to an end ...even great empires ....even looting others gold and diamonds .....😂😂😂😂😂😂
Good man
Queen so young and beautiful.
I should have come back as prime minister after he resigned
No Attlee
@RishiSunakPM2022 thanks Rishi

Is that Harold Macmillan at 0:38?
Legendary!
if you look closely, there is thomas shelby across the road
Crazy to think she met someone born in 1874
not really. a lot of people in their 70's like my parents for instance met people who were born at that time like their grandparents etc
Winston was a great man we would be hard pressed to find another like him
Great man. Does anyone know what kind of cigars he smoked?
What a great human being. God bless Winston 🙏✌
🤮🤮🤮
The man who beat hitler , sir wiston churchill rest in peac❤️🙏👍️🇳🇵
Um homem que nunca poderá ser esquecido pelo seu povo
Long before the days when security & the need for gates & armed cops defending this iconic street. Shame how much trust & faith we have lost in this nation 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
I know he didn't like my country or people but can't help respect him
Out of curiosity, what country is that?
@@obviousness8113 Ireland
@@kid--presentable Ahh, yes. I think it was De Valera that he was most upset with. I've studied WC, and I don't think he disliked the average Irishman, just De Valera, who represented Ireland. Naturally, the average Irishman would follow their own leaders. Thank you for seeing him in a respectful light. I am American, by the way. A history buff.
@@obviousness8113 he said appealing things about the average Irish man , called us ferrel Humans , I could go on , unfortunately you are wrong.. however one can't help but respect the man.
@@kid--presentable I don't disagree that he said those things but he also said some bad things about the members of the Labor party, MPs whom he disagreed with, people who worked for him, and anyone who annoyed him. Many of these people he later went on to speak well of and would even eulogize when he attended their funerals. But I see where you are coming from.
I like this videos I feel like this man have so much to teach me 🇺🇸💪🏽💧
@Dark Matter Oh!!!!!! Be Quiet Communist Pig And Why Did You Call Her A Racist???? You Don't Even Know Her Simply Because She Stated That She Loved Watching These Old Newsreels And Stating That She Wished Churchil Would Teach Her So Much???
RIP
The cars are Humber Super Snipes just so you know.
Wow!! How times have changed with BJ
How Dowling Street has changed since these photos. The general public are no longer permitted into this area.
Respect to winston
A natural icon like Sir Winston is hard to find nowadays.
Don't forget.due to his racist behaviour..4.3 million people died.
Do you know more about him sir
People call the Ukrainian President Zelensky a modern Churchill
Sir Winston Churchill the Great👍👏😊
I love this character
Victory ✌️ for Sir Winston Churchill 🇬🇧
Out Queen Elizabeth favorite Prime Minister of all is Sir Winston Churchill
Revien mon bon amis Sir Winston on a besoin de toi plus que jamais
_Thank you!_
_Very interesting and educational!_ 🇷🇺👍
when you were actually allowed to stand near 10 downing street
I need to come back as prime minister
No
@RishiSunakPM2022 who are you
@RishiSunakPM2022 wow Indians taking over as the leader of Britain
@RishiSunakPM2022 Attlee should have come PM not you Rishi
Winston you are a legend but you resigned cause of your health and you where 80
priminister or not i bet he was still able to visit the queen when he wanted.
India 🇮🇳: Evil 😈 guy Winston!!!!😮😢
If Rishi Sunak was PM during WW11 we'd probably all be speaking Japanese and wearing lederhosen...🤔🤔🤔
I remember his funeral.
he was a murder
Do the Brits ever let the Prime Minister get thrown out of office in an election or even finish their term? Or do they always resign in disgrace?
Good question. The last 5 prime ministers have all not served a full term.
Tony Blair resigned in 2007 following calls to resign because of the Iraq war in 2003 with the US.
Gordon Brown took the seat and was instantly blamed for the mistakes Blair made and the 2008 financial crash.
David Cameron served his first term as a mediocre pm and then resigned because of the brexit referendum.
Theresa May took Cameron’s spot and tried to complete brexit but then she failed to get her brexit deal through parliament and then resigned.
And finally, Boris Johnson resigned because of the whole Chris Pincher scandal and many other scandals during his time at No. 10.
Sir Winston was the men of the WW2 without him we would all speak german
More like *could
Lack of oil*
@@JudgeCorser omfg
You've to thank the Yanks for saving Britain. Not to forget the Red Army for exhausting German fighting resources.
I think you forgot about Roosevelt and Eisenhower and if it were not for the United States of America helping Great Britain and entering World War II we would all be speaking German
I would like to know how/what queen feel when she think about the difference between Winston Churchill and boris Jhonson 🙄
7 years and 15 comments huh
The father of our nation!! ❤😢
The Greatest Enemy of India and Humanity.
Once he said Indians are not capable to govern but today UK has Indian origin PM, What an irony🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yeah but he killed lots of indians I am british but its not right killing innocent and defenceless people
@@ajaykumaraggarwal9666yeah his parents escaped from India and became British irony
I read somewhere that after he was voted out, he described it as very good news, as this was the democracy he had been fighting for. Any comments? Has anyone else heard this?
whoaa larry the cat already exist in 10 downing since churchill era. such a history larry the cat! 😂
Winston churchill enjoyed Cigars ( Suruttu) made from my state Trichy in south india.
What a man, what a fooking man! 🇬🇧👏👏👏
As a Bengali he is no less than Hitler for us.
World should know about his crimes against Bengalis and how he engineered a mass genocide in Bengal during his reign.
I still cant believe he wasnt trialed in Nuremburg for having Auschwitz like camps in Bengali where he personally sewed twins together with a needle and string. Or how he single handedly shot millions of Bengalis in mass ditches.
The Queen is immortal.
As all reptilians.... 😯
@@oleogabalo 🤣🤣🤣👍👍
@@oleogabalo Lol yep, the lizard🦎 queen.

Ouch
This is the greatest leader G.B. ever had. And along with Roosevelt, of the century. He has got to be the Queen's fondest memory. He's a giant. And the Queen knows she owes the survival of England to him.
You're cracking the whip tonight.
Does anybody know what is the origin of the peace sign with the hand? 1:33
i think this mean V. Victory . In my country mostly this mean v. victory
Wow , men were really men to say I have nothing to offer but blood tears and sweat - it makes you want to tattoo his face and that saying.
Sounds evil...
Wise and kindly way of eLife.
