Skating Jewels (1935)
No titles. Comedian Ronald Frankau introduces The Skating Jewels, saying a skate is a very difficult thing to manipulate, especially fried with chips. We then see a man and woman skating on a small circular platform. They do a few balancing stunts as they twirl round. We then see the woman doing a Russian kicking dance on rollerskates, by balancing on the front wheel of her skates no stoppers More stunts by the couple, some in slow motion. Their finishing flourish shows the woman hanging from a strap around the man s neck by her teeth, as she spins over and over in an almost horizontal position. There is another strap around her neck.
