Billy Butlin Marries Norah

At Caxton Hall in Westminster we see a large crowd waiting for Billy Butlin and his bride Norah to come out. They walk down the steps and stop to pose for pictures. Billy waves to the crowd (or the photographers) and then kisses Norah. They walk down the rest of the steps and get into their car.
