Views of London Bridge and the Houses of Parliament in London, England. Closeup of Big Ben. Views of St. Paul's Cathedral, Trafalgar Square and Nelson's Column. Scene shifts to Royal Navy band, playing at London Heathrow airport, as the United States President's airplane, Air Force One, arrives. President John F. Kennedy and Mrs. Jacqueline Kennedy step from their aircraft and are greeted by The Lord Chamberlain, Roger Lumley, 11th Earl of Scarbrough, representing Queen Elizabeth II and by Prime Minister Harold Macmillan. The party walks on a red carpet and pauses for a salute from the Navy band. Lady Dorothy Macmillan and Mrs. Jacqueline Kennedy stand together next to the President's airplane, during these ceremonies. View of Admiralty House (temporary residence of the Prime Minister, due to renovation at 10 Downing Street). President Kennedy and Prime Minister Macmillan walk to the President's car following their consultations. President Kennedy and Mrs. Kennedy say their good-byes. Britons cheer as the car drives away. A new sequence shows guards parading during the Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace. Police strain to hold back crowds of spectators during arrival of President and Mrs. Kennedy, on June 5, 1961. But some manage to break through and approach closer as their car arrives, bringing the Kennedys for a private dinner with Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh. The next scenes show President Kennedy still in formal attire, from the Royal dinner, escorted to his airplane by Prime Minister Macmillan. U.S. Ambassador to the Court of St. James, David Bruce, is the last to shake hands with the President as he ascends the steps to Air Force One, which then taxis out for takeoff, at midnight. Scene shifts to the White House in Washington, DC, and President Kennedy's broadcast report on June 6th to the Nation about his trip.
