    Titles read: 'NOW Pathe Pictorial has pleasure in presenting - JEAN MELVILLE - of BBC fame and BILLY THORBURN - equally popular (by courtesy of Jack Payne) in a duo-piano duet.'

    Various shots of pianists Jean Melville and Billy Thorburn sitting back to back and playing grand pianos. Jean wears an evening gown and Billy is in black tie and dinner jacket. According to paperwork they play a medley of their own, unpublished music. It's fast and syncopated stuff - great!
