Overview

Royalty comes to Scunthorpe - and the Jubilee Cinema produces its very own film to mark the great occasion. Prince George, who later became the Duke of Kent, takes in some dramatic scenes in a local steelworks, opens a trunk road, and visits the War Memorial Hospital to open a new nurses' home - where his presence is eagerly awaited by giggling nurses.

Prince George was the fourth son of King George V. The hospital visited by the Prince is now known as Scunthorpe General Hospital.
