A misty morning on fishing boat “Settler” on a river or inlet. A duck hunter walks on the bank/ shore. A line of jingle: “With the good of the country at heart.” Bearded captain with cap. His thoughts in voiceover: “It’s a great day for young Sam”. A young boy leans on the side of the boat and pretends to shoot ducks. Voiceover continues: “Heh, heh. Another duck. Reckon he’ll be getting hungry. His auntie made sure the Aulsebrooks’ Digestives were in. Big wholesome wheaty biscuits. Digestives are great with butter too.” Both are seated with a picnic basket and Digestive biscuits are buttered. Voiceover concludes: “That rich crunchy flavour’s just right with a cup of tea.” Biscuit packet with onscreen text: “a taste of the country at heart.” (Also sung.)
‘Postscript’ with armchair. Voiceover: “Six Big Softies to be won for Father’s Day. Aulsebrooks’ great sweepstake. Enter now.”
