Description: The summer of 1976 was one of the hottest on record, and this film shows two young children cooling off – the elder sister in a paddling pool while her baby brother makes do with a washing up bucket. Before that, we see the christening of baby Peter at a Catholic church in Epsom, followed by a party in family home in Epsom. Includes good exterior street scenes outside the church and some fine 70s décor, like the swinging wicker egg chair in the living room.
