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.

The couple married at Mastrick Church in Aberdeen in August 1967.
