Loved the fashion, more colour then , the shops were more boutique, great era , wish we could turn the clock back .
Jane Marett look at how things were and then from early 1990s our politicians decided that mass uncontrolled immigration would be beneficial for us.If they have great skills that we need they are welcome but majority have not and are using our country to get
All the benefits under the sun and we pay for them
Lots of ladies in dresses and skirts and almost none wearing blue jeans. People dressed up more back then.
End of the greatest decade ever
there selling hippie wigs in woolworths man
What a glorious time that was - London was the center of the pop universe!
Beautiful mannerly times! Neat dress! No obesity!
@Jackfrost I guess people still had to go to individual stores for everything. Greengrocers,butchers,etc. Alot of walking and no internet or smartphones
That's a time when people talked to each other. Manner times, didn't see anyone help the lady who fell over. The shop names were Great,so dated but a moneyed area. The Mini Skirts are still good. And the color footage is in good condition. Memories of a very different time.🛵🚙🇬🇧
That’s because we all smoked cigarettes and drank coffee!
No GMO from the food companies.
I love the mini dresses and skirts and the boots..
Janet Benning mini skirts and long white boots look amazing.
And nobody with their heads down looking at their smartphones!
Loving the orange TVR . These stock shots are great because they show a little slice of everyday life 50 years ago .
God I wish they finally invented a time machine. I would go into the past and do some serious shopping ; ))) The clothes and shoes were amazing back then !!
Walked down the King's Rd 17 yrs old late 1959.. Saw Sammy Davis Jnr and Michael Caine with Capucine his next co_star in The Italian job.Sammy was with his Swedish blonde wife.Cameras flashing . Went to Mary Quant's boutique. Them was the days. Loved it.
Fabulous and Best ever decade !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!☺
Cant help thinking that the photographer was mainly interested in the girls. Just as it should be. Who can deny that British gals during this era were absolutely stunning ❤❤
Londoners in 1960`s look so cool and trendy. I feel a power of British culture.
Naming a boutique _Kleptomania_ is like an invitation for theft.
That was a very famous London boutique.
@@golden.lights.twinkle2329 I don't doubt this, but I find it crazy anyway 🤭 but hey! It was the 60's!
I had a pair of those white stretch boots. They were so difficult to get on and off. The Kings Road was great in the sixties. Now it is just an ordinary street same as anywhere else
The King's Road declined after 1981/1982 after the New Romantic era faded.
Superb, great to see - thanks British Movietone, a lovely snapshot of a sunny day in London back in 69
5:29 that poor woman stacks it and nobody stops to help her?? Wow, and I thought things were bad in this day and age.
yeah...saw that, too! and people just kept walking; unless the tape went on to something else. I hope someone actually did help her though.
Camera was not on long enough to see what really happened
Buff Rogered
She'd clearly been on a pub crawl and had a few too many at The Chelsea Potter, The Phoenix and The Markham Arms. Serves her right for getting pissssed in the middle of the day!
Wonderful memories 😎 any films with clubs like the flamingo, tiles roaring twenties, subway alphabet etc. Brilliant 😎
I notice some of the prices in the shop windows were in guineas!
That was before decimalisation.
Why am i seeing 0 fat people in this video??? If i had to film the same street nowadays it would be Spacehoppers walking along in every shot!
No supermarkets or processed food. All shops were local greengrocers, fishmongers, bakers and butchers. If you didn't know how to eat from a plate with a fork and knife while in company, they would think there was something wrong with you.
Hadn't become a state of the USA then.accepting every rubbish food chain.
Look again. There is a fat copper at 5:26.
Because sugar was not added to every thing and people did not eat 24 hrs a day
Stop exaggerating. Most present day London residents are still slim. You've clearly never been to London.
5.28 Granny takes a trip
Pity no shots of the Chelsea Drugstore that had great Saturday lunchtime discos in the music lounge on the second floor.
i went in Just Men in 1968 and there was just loads of blokes standing around
@zondaintheair You shout at shop assistants?
ok nobody laughed -Typical
ROFLMAO ... too funny!!! A great place for women to shop for boyfriends and husbands I take it? Ha!!
MINISKIRT A little history
The miniskirt was created by Lucien David LANGMAN, Master Tailor of the Jean Raymond house in 1959. Mary QUANT, the British woman, bought 2 miniskirts cut by Lucien David Langman at the Boutique des Arts in Saint Tropez and paraded them on a young model of 16 years TWIGGY in New York in 1966. The Miniskirt creations of Lucien David Langman and the aspiring model were a success in NEW YORK and launched Mary Quant to the forefront #LucienLangman #jeanraymond
4:25 that's some nasty damage on what must be an almost new Capri.
@Blaster 2012
Yes, but as it's a Capri who cares? Thankfully it wasn't the TVR at the end of the video or the lovely Silver Shadow at 3:59.
Happy days what went wrong
We 'celebrated' diversity.
Along came the 70's and flares. Thats what went wrong.
mass migration
Not a fat person in sight 😂😂
The good times cannot be brought back. There are absolutely no obese people on the street and beggars too.
I also noticed the lack of overweight people. But back then very few fast food outlets except chip shop. And also people done more exercise like walk to work as not everyone had cars plus no vdeos, game consoles, mobiles & computers and people sat on their backsides 24/7. Hope woman who fell was ok.
THere are no obese people because that's London not Los Angeles.
@@stolpinski1 No processed foods and oils. Few takeaways. People ate real food.
My goodness, some of those dresses/skirts sure are short! LoL
Yeah, just covering the knicker line!
@@bernadettemurray2016 And not covering that when they bend forward.
@@golden.lights.twinkle2329 Many of those skirts today are just as short.
There are some long-haired men there, looking ridiculous.
That's a good thing
Loved shopping in take 6
I bought a tie in there once. That shop was in the Carnaby Street area though. I may still have it packed away somewhere.
So did you take 6? Or only 1? Ha!
Yes people look very different back then but I guarantee you that human nature was exactly the same.
Should date it 1969 BC (before cellphones).
Dude, that is the BC (best comment).
Was there just the other day - no sign of The Picasso restaurant; a proper family run Italian run joint serving affordable hot lunches . I well remember the crazy old Matriarch on the other side of the counter - she used to stand there muttering and cursing you to your face in Italian. Was it always a touch on the shabby side, or is that my memory playing tricks. The serious wealth is up on Sloane St - every other car a Lamborghini. Of course I went up there, from out of Town, in absolutely the wrong attire . I was in my Country Gent brown waxed jacket, jeans and tweed hat ; I looked like a brown sack of potatoes on legs.
It was a little disapointing clothes wise - but I did bag a half price shirt in Peter Jones.
@Peter John Ayton
Picasso closed years ago and it served overpriced mediocre food and was full of holier than thou old beatnik type dinosaur gurus. And if you were really unlucky, you'd find the old buffoon, Bob Geldof there barefoot and bellowing.
I'm always on the lookout for a sartorial bargain at Peter Jones when I return there. It's always hit and miss. And you're right - most of the men's clothes there are conservative, frumpy and dull, but one can bag a gem there every now and then. The top floor cafe always a winner but you have to fight tooth and nail for a 'prime' window seat with a view.
Based on your attire, you should've been sporting mustard corduroys, a shotgun under your arm and a couple of fine hunting dogs in tow.
Such pretty young women in mini skirts, I ignored everything else ~
I noticed someone fell and then film was cut to the next scene 😮
The title of the video wasn't 'People falling over in London'.
Minnie Swan book (by Peter Baker, 1969) in The Evening Standard at 3:25
It’s very similar to today 2021 building wise as I think it’s got an emphasis on conservation..few shop fronts have been altered dramatically
Glorious days before all the frack-scene damage of the 1970s on.
At 5 12 that Express Dairy milk float was known as a Rider Pram . Was THE best float for doorstep deliveries bar none. Manufactured by T H LEWIS of Watford. Now that's a PROPER Electric Vehicle. Possibly out of Putney depot.
Fallen in love with the blonde in the white boots ❤
Before Pret came along. All food now. Everyone seems to relax and have a mooch.
Here today, Gone tomorrow. Seems like yesterday 50 years ago.
woman falls at 5.29 hope she's ok
By now she must be around 90 years old, hope coronavirus hasn't taken her down..
A man walks straight past her?!!
@@paulchedzey7276 That's London for you
Indeed my thoughts entirely!
I know right. In this day and age people will stop and help someone that falls. So glad we're living in the 2030's and not the 1960's.
Sainsbury 1869-1969 Centenary carrier bag at 5:27
Thanks
Born Dec 68 so I was alive just about
At 5: 26 a woman in a blue dress falls flat on her face and no one gives a damn, they carry on walking, even the cameramen turns away ..
So how do you know what happened after the camera left her?
@@golden.lights.twinkle2329 a good samaritan helped her up 😊😊😊
In the ear to mid sixties, you only wore blue jeans if you couldn't afford "proper" trousers!Love the old milk float.Made by TH LEWIS of Watford.
A lady in blue clothes stumbled over the pavement. (5:29) I wonder what happened to her.
Then she would have had 10 people, immediately, helping her up and enquiring as to her well being as I was 14 in Inner London then so I know.
Now? A cyclist fell unconscious in Nigel Road, Peckham, and got mugged while laying on the floor...
" Progress Innit ! Innit ?
She still lies there to this day. The poor old dear.
Not one overweight person….
It makes me a bit sad to think that most of these people will be dead or very old now. I was a young lad in the sixties and I have such lovely memories of The Kings Road from the early the seventies. I hope all the people had wonderful and happy lives. ❤
The 60s didn’t end on Dec 31 1969 it carried through to the punk era 👍
Punk era didn't begin until 1976.
@@Haberdashery22 Yea, ugliness, punk and hatred killed it for ever. I saw the first bottles of hate counter-culture thrown at hippies in Hyde Park.
Was that a Premier League player at 5:24. Penalty.
Who is that at 3:44 in the orange blazer? He pops up again in this video at 4:43.
Thats a very young Elton John.
@@buffrogers6650 Really?😯
Very interesting. The earliest this can be is 1969.
5:46 that's not a mini, that's a woman who forgot to wear a skirt.
that was a bad fall the lady in blue had i hope she was ok
1969. You can tell from the G registration on the cars, and the Standard advertising thriller Minnie Swan by Peter Baker.
did you see the women in the blue suit trip and fall on her face? That looked nasty. Not one person stopped to help her. Typical Brit stiff upper lip? Nowadays people would be at your side in seconds
Misanthrope Cutler only in London..lol
Nothing has changed much has it, people falling over in the street and no one helping Them. it could be todays World 🌎 full of un-careing people!
I'd go for spring 1970 as Minnie Swan published in late 1969, looks too warm for late 1969. I was working for the Royal borough of k&c council 1970-72 and house prices were starting to move, early 1971 you could buy a house in Notting Hill for about £10,000 if you could get a mortgage! Notting Hill was rough.
@@mikewa2 Agree. Ev Std billboards talk about Spring Fashion.
Also at 5:00 you can see Mary Quant's Bazaar at 138a Kings Road. Look carefully and you see demolition rubble in the forecourt. Bazaar closed 1969.
year????
VAL VLOG This was filmed in 1969.
Glad that cigarettes went out of fashion.
I never smoked once and I will be 68 in London this month but I am constantly hearing of deaths now from Guys from that era of my age, due to smoke-related diseases and illnesses..
It looks like the late sixties or early seventies.
1969
Ahh Chealsea Girl...😆
They were a chain, there was one in Birmingham, Leicester and Coventry.
Nasty fall .Lady Blue Lady
5:27
This is late 60's isn´t it?
jabasto - I guess at 1969-70
1970 to be exact
5.28.....lady falls no one helps !!
yes it was the 2 men in jackets who stepped aside who were the chief culprits!
have to admit though she was caught a right ''pearler''! ''MIND THE STEP! haha''
Thats London for you..lol
How do you know no-one helped?
@@golden.lights.twinkle2329 watch tha video bro!! sheesh!
Not the slums though
1968.
Spot the black man and Indian man in the video for you bigots who says London wasn't diverse those day lol.
ROFLMAO ... you think black and indian is diverse? Hahahah. Where are the Transvestites and lesbians and flamboyant queers and Japanese manga girls and K-Pop kids and Taliban???
@@buffrogers6650 need more trans for sure, and some of the garb shown would be great if you are trans..or thinking or trans-ing, even if only for a weekend
Everyone smart and no fatties or cultural enrichment.
I saw a couple of West Indians.
@@golden.lights.twinkle2329 She didnt. Only sees white. Lol
@@Isleofskye fred west and Peter Sutcliffe would agree with you
@@johnathandaviddunster38 Woyld you rather have dinner with Fred West or Bill Cosby? That is the question.
@@Isleofskye neither , why do you ask ???
Smoking then?
I never smoked once and I will be 68 in London this month but I am constantly hearing of deaths now from Guys from that era of my age, due to smoke-related diseases and illnesses..
5,30 une dame tombe par terre et personne ne l'a ramasse🙄
Fantastic times in real Britain ……not an immigrant in site …….good old British London sixties summer ……none of this COVID shit …no fucking brexit
Just halcium days never to be repeated 😞
eh there were plenty of immigrants just in other areas
I'm sure all those other countries said the same thing before the Brits turned up to colonise them.
sad to think a lot of these people will be dead now
5:29 and nothing much has changed since the sixties, as woman has a really nasty fall... but no one seems too bothered about her. :0/
Precisely!
Hardly fair, as the camera panned away immediately we will never know what happened!
@@dream-67 She's still lying there. :0)
@@williamr3840 They built a monument there to commemorate her fall and being left there. And so now when anyone walks over the monument they too trip and fall, and still nobody does anything. Har har! :P
@@buffrogers6650 Eventually they will build a gigantic bronze statue of the enormous mountain of people who have piled up there on top of each other over the years. It will be entitled, simply, 'Shopping Trip'. :0)
anyone over weight
sbcfilm few
None in this video no fat people .
me ... before I started working ou.
1.05 -1.07 man done that like a rapist.
Poor lady tripped over. No one helped her.
Also no overweight people.
MMMMMMM What's the word?? "CLOWNY". It makes a Gay Pride Parade look sophisticated.
wow they look commercial

You guys are racist. Whats wrong with black leggy woman? ha!
Stupid fashion but good that it's posted. Always good to see the old days.
I guess you prefer obese people with unwashed hair wearing torn jeans and t-shirts that say 'F U'.
@@golden.lights.twinkle2329 like torn jeans and tshirts weren´t around then
I wonder if those were strip clubs lmao
No.
Austin Powers era!! lol
