Energy. Part of the UP AND OVER issue. Surreal montage of shots illustrate different forms of energy. Quick shots of an equestrian statue - Watts' (?) 'Physical Energy' in Kensington Gardens. Animation shows a brush dripping ink on paper - it forms into the word 'ENERGY'. Studio sequence shows a man in striped pyjamas getting out of bed, opening the window and doing his stretching exercises. Animation shows a scarecrow outside doing same. C/U of dictionary entry for 'energy'. Brief animated diagram illustrates the energy present in every atom. Quick shots of a coal mine. The striped pyjama man drinks some beer and with the extra energy does his daily dozen in speeded up footage. Animated diagrams illustrate the fact that the sun produces lots of energy but wastes it; bearded 'Waste Inspector' points and croaks “You're wasting energy!“. More animation shows that in a small area of the desert, enough energy is wasted to give the whole of Great Britain solar power. C/U of electricity bill.
