The scene then changes to what we presume is the child thinking. This is in black and white, a contrast to the bright colour film we have just seen. The child is in a classroom wearing a scholarly cap and gown. There is a large clock towards the back, a large blackboard and the girl is standing on a large wooden table. She is balancing on one leg and pointing to the writing on the blackboard. It reads the word ‘England’, written in chalk with the capital ‘E’ emphasised. The child is pointing to this letter.
The scene then suddenly changes back to the little girl next to the Thames in colour film. She thinks for another moment and then announces with a proud smile: “E”.
The location changes at this point to an Antenatal ward of a hospital. A different little girl, who has short blonde hair, is sitting with who we presume are her mother and baby brother on fold up chairs. Above their heads there is a sign that reads ‘Antenatal’. The camera is quite far away. The family is sitting to the right of the shot and a doctor in a white coat walks past. Then, a woman walks on with a man following her, from the right to the left of the screen. The woman is pregnant and wearing a flowing skirt with a cardigan, which tightens round her bump. The man following her has a large stomach and is wearing a shirt tucked into his trousers which accentuates it. The camera changes angles and appears to be just behind the mother on the child’s left. It zooms into the child, who has a small smile on her face. essaybank.co.uk
The scene then changes to what we presume this child is thinking. This part is also in colour. The background appears to be hand drawn and coloured in and there are clouds floating across the screen. There is a tunnel of people, leading down to what looks like a maternity ward with a red door. There is a line of women on the left and a line of men on the right. They are all wearing hospital gowns. It looks as though everybody on both sides is pregnant - they all have large stomachs. A woman brushes her hair out of her face as the camera pans from left to right. The man closest to the camera is rubbing his stomach. The location then changes back to the hospital as the camera is zoomed in on the little girl and she is saying: “Do mummies have girls and daddies have boys?”
The scene then alters to a shot of a kitchen window with a white painted window frame. There is a vase full of sunflowers on the sill, and a metal old-fashioned tap. An empty glass is also on the window sill and a hand pours some of the advertised orange concentrate into it. The camera zooms in slightly as the glass is filled with water. There is a blue sky outside and the glass reflects the sun to make a clean and sparkly looking reflection concentrated at a point. As the water is poured it also sparkles and glistens. The voice-over at this point says: “Robinson’s Original. Now with five new vitamins”. It is read by a young woman’s voice and is motherly and attractive.
