Newsreel reporter among the hippies of the flower-power summer

A British Pathé item on the 1967 hippie scene, with a presenter walking viewers through the music, the dress and the street life of the moment. In a piece of newsreel self-parody, one of Pathé's own cameramen is dressed up as a hippie on camera. The tone is that of a light magazine segment rather than reportage.
