Stars Greyhounds (1961)
Hook Kennels, Northaw, Hertfordshire. Various shots of athletic star Brian Hewson exercising with his greyhound dog; they race up and down a lawn before a large country house. Commentator tells us he is a successful owner of greyhounds; this one is called Secret Crash. Three women are seen leading numerous greyhounds across a field and past Brian, who is patting his dog. A car pulls up next to the field; actress Millicent Martin (looking very glam in a cream coat with furry collar) and her pop singer husband Ronnie Carroll get out. A baldheaded man (trainer Joe Pickering) greets them with the greyhound they own. C, U of Ronnie petting the dog. Joe leads the dog round in a circle for no particular reason I can fathom, bringing him back to Millicent who holds a bowl of food for the dog to eat out of, while Ronnie brushes the dog s coat. Commentator tells us the dog is called The Long Echo. The couple hand the lead of their dog to one of the dogwalking girls who leads The Long Echo off
