Can’t be, don’t you know who built it all?

Wonderful so enjoyable to watch and see London during my mother’s youth in the 1920’s. Liked the soundtrack as well.

Thanks for sharing this amazing video ❤🎉

Thank you so much, I really appreciate it

Great photos, but simply ghastly and entirely anachronistic music.

4:20 The Tunic of the "Coldstream Guard" is red. Their Greatcoats were grey. They are the oldest continuously serving regular regiment in the British Army founded in 1650 as "Monck's Regiment of Foot" and renamed "The Coldstream Regiment of Foot Guards" (after the location in Scotland where the regiment helped restore the monarchy 1660) in 1670 with Monck's death. In 1855 they were renamed Coldstream Guard till today. Wikipedia

I was just about to repeat your comment. ‘Love the photos, hate the music’. It doesn’t pair well with the photos does it?

Great images. Poor selection of background music.

I think the music is great. I understand where you are soming from by using it. Excellent video.

Excellent !!

At 1.30 I’m quite sure that is not Fleet street but St James street that leads from Long Acre and Covent Garden Tube station to Covent Garden itself (which you can see in the pic at the end of the road).

Maravilloso

Super. Génial. Merci

0:42. Wow!! I was born in Brixton but as it was 1946 missed this zebra!! 😅 1:27. My father worked there for Evening Standard. This was such a good video and liked music! Thanks.

Gosto demais de fotografias de outras epocas

The people in these photos will be turning in their graves seeing the London it is today!

True, those people had their own culture, built on hard work but for some reason our politicians saw their culture as worthless and now it's gone forever. At least we have this footage.

Great to see, thanks for posting. Unfortunately, the description of 3 of the photos, was incorrect.

London looked very modern even in those days and clean

This is Convent Garden not Fleet St. The building crossing the background still exists as the original market, where fruit, vegetables and flowers were sold (now restaurants, shops, tourist tat and craft goods). Other clues include the fruit and banana importer on the left, the costermonger carrying his baskets on his head and general produce on the backs of the lorries and drays.

Fantastic photos thank you…..but the music isn’t right.

You forgot to mention also Capital city of the world's biggest Empire ever known hurrahs.

Policing in the 20th Century back then.

Period appropriate music.

The music, bad choice. Turned off.

Love your stereo soundtrack. Never knew stereo is available on mobile phones.

Why Chicago/Memphis blues with turn of century England?

I very much doubt the picture with the Durham Miners banner was taken in London. It is most likely that senior figures in the miners union taken in or near Durham. Had they been in London it would have been there for a rally or other public event, not the background in the picture.

@charlesjames - it states it's in London when it isn't. It maybe pedantic but, it's an error that's irritating, to me anyway. Happy New Year all. 🍾🎉🎊🎉🍾

Great photos and colorization - but, ummm - the music selection was a bit odd for the subject matter. Not many denizens of early 20th century London were into swinging jazz/blues or 60's cocktail jazz. Also, it's worth noting that 95% of the English population (at that time) lived very hard lives.

I don’t care how poor they were back then financially, they were rich in community spirit and being around their own people. I would rather have been born back then, with all it’s faults. They lived knowing that they were not going to be replaced. Oh btw, replace that damned awful music and replace it with something more fitting. Some classical music maybe.

Shame about the music, sorry.

I actually love 🥰 the music 🎵 different strokes and all that.

The guy in the Royal Ascot pic at 1.08 looks like The Penguin

These photos give the lie to those who say London has always been a diverse, multicultural place. What is noticeable is the lack of darker complexions, Middle Eastern dress, flowing robes, burkhas, niqabs, turbans etc…

Resolution improved

Hate the music. Music has got to go.🤮🤮🤮🤮

clickbait you put the best picture in thmbnail 😂

Police Officers.

Why kerosene?

I wondered that.

Interesting pictures, but trust a Yank to get the music hoplessly wrong. Why not source some music from the era?? I had to stop watching on account of the totally unsuitable guitar rubbish. Why don't you have some Scott Joplin or Jelly Roll Morton? Both American, but at least it would be contemporary with the early 1900s.

So sad to see a poor Zebra being used as a work horse. 🥲
