Typed in Zulu in the search field and quite a fem come up. | Date | Replies | 10th December 2002 | Peter Critchley Indeed, it's the funeral of John Fielding (Williams), VC hero of Rorke's Drift. It doesn't have any audio, but it's certainly impressive that the technology we now have allows us to view this sort of material.
To view it, go to www.britishpathe.com, type in "Zulu" in the search field, and click on the "Preview" option. You then need to "Complete your order", although the preview quality version is free.
Good luck!

But can I preview the footage "NO" any suggestions |
