LONDON 1927

Some early 1927 colour footage of London including shots of the cricket match between England and Australia - the Ashes, the first time Australia won the game.  What's striking apart from the lack of traffic is how unchanged it all appears and how the old fashioned London Bobby (Policeman) held back the traffic flow with a wave of his hand.  I doubt he would want to be standing in the traffic that is there today
