Crofter Boy (clip 3)

The clip opens with a shot of seagulls calling as they fly over the harbour. Kenny is on the harbour watching the men work on the fishing boat as a catch of herring is landed. There are details of the fish being caught and unloaded from the boat before Kenny travels out with the men on a salmon boat on its daily tour of the nets. There are close ups of Kenny and the men, and then the net as it is brought in and checked for fish. Kenny then helps on a trip to collect lobster pots.

Once ashore, Kenny learns how the pots work and there are close ups of the lobsters being handled. We return to the land, and Kenny has a go on a small tractor. Kenny and his mother and collies then walk along the road with some cattle.

Back home Kenny throws a ball for the dogs, while his grandmother makes a pot of tea inside. The new electric kettle is of particular note here. Kenny sits at table for his supper, along with his collie. There are shots of the food, then of his mother washing dishes at the sink. Kenny then practices blowing his chanter while his mother uses the new electric iron to press the laundry. After practice, Kenny goes to bed while his grandfather settles down to listen to the wireless set.
