Army Cooks (1960)

The Army Catering Corps’ Training Centre in Aldershot, Hampshire. M/S in a kitchen with lots of pots and pans in the background. Two students in white uniforms and hats are preparing food while the chef checks the progress. Panning shot to show two more students that he moves on to, then C/Us as he adjusts their work, and we see the food being prepared: one looks like some kind of salmon dish with salad arrangement, the next is a veal, ham and egg pie. C/U of the student placing an egg in the centre, folding the meat into the pie and putting a lid of pastry over it. M/Ss of another chef demonstrating pastry techniques to two students; we then see them rolling pastry and squeezing jam into the middle of some buns. C/U of several savoury and sweet dishes spread out on a table then tilt up to show a student, an instructor and an army officer who inspects the food, samples a piece of fruit cake then nods his approval. C/U of the canteen menu in chalk on a blackboard. M/S of men in army uniforms co
