Description

We begin with Prince Charles visiting a Sikh temple where he left his shoes at the door and was suitably attired for entry with a handkerchief covering his head. Next he visited Madeley Community Centre where Sari clad ladies presented the prince with a bouquet for Lady Diana and he tried out a hanging cane chair, usually used for portrait photography. The next stop was the Pear Tree coffee bar where the prince played pool with a group of unemployed young people. We also see a short performance from a local Caribbean steel band. We then see the prince visiting the Ukrainian Association Club where he saw a folk dance display. Finally we see a visit to the Polish Air Force Club where the prince met war veterans and received a book about the Polish air force. A group of school children also performed a Polish song. There are also shots of Prince Charles on a walkabout.

The first minute has a Lynda Berry commentary. After the edited item there are about five minutes of unedited trims.
