Mark 1333 | Couple reunited with lost wedding film after 57 years (Scotland/Australia) 2nd/Oct/2024 @Mark1333 | Uploaded October 2024 | Updated October 2024, 11 hours ago.
A husband and wife in Australia have been reunited with the long lost footage of their wedding in Scotland after it was found by chance 57 years later.
Aileen and Bill Turnbull got married in Aberdeen in 1967 and later emigrated - but without the film.
The footage was found when an old cine film was transferred onto DVD for a man in Aberdeen. He posted an image from it on social media, and the couple in Brisbane later recognised themselves.
After watching the film again - which she had only seen once before - Mrs Turnbull told BBC Scotland News it was an "absolutely amazing" feeling.
