@englandincolour It is very likely to be 1959/60. The newspaper hoarding I LS for the Star, which ceased publication on 1960. That and the mini, which was launched in 1959.
Hmm ... this made me feel nostalgic. I have no clue what year it was filmed but the choir is singing I Vow to Thee Thy Country ... one of my wedding hymns.

@englandincolour There must be lip readers who could find out what they are saying. I know they've done it with old silent footage of WW1 soldiers chatting near the front line.
@englandincolour @porridgeisgood Love this. Brilliant, thank you.
@englandincolour @Ivycottagebaker Could the year be the one when the man pictured on the right played for England when they Won The World Cup!? George Cohen. RN.
