London in the late 1950s ,60s and even the 70s was a great city. I always felt safe coming back from New Cross on the last train ,never any trouble. The West end on Saturday night was pure enjoyment. No one ever thought about getting attacked , mugged or stabbed. Mugging was something that happened in America, it could never happen in London. The copper was on his beat ,dressed like a police Constable in the blue uniform and helmet; now they look like a cross between a traffic warden and robo cop with those horrible yellow jackets and ever more gadgets hanging on their belt. Who ,then, could have guessed that everything could change so drastically and go so wrong?
@Fred Blair believe me Fred , your doing the right thing by being where you are . This is no longer the Britain you remember . It is no longer OUR country . It is completely over run with foreigners . From every part of the globe . It's like the league of nations . . You made the right move by emigrating . . Enoch was exactly right . Our country now belongs to the immigrants . . We are second class citizens in our own land . .
Absolutely brilliant. Love these old videos. I do feel a bit sad that this way of life is long gone. Immigration changed things an awful lot. The market is nothing like this anymore.
@John Salvage if its rubbish, just carry on eating fish & chips and pie & mash for the rest of your life. If you don't like other cultures or their foods don't eat it. You might also not want to be hypocritical by enjoying their music, Jazz, R&B, Blues, hip hop, Reggae etc.
Solomon Joel Cohen, alias 'Sid James', was born on 8 May 1913, to Jewish parents in South Africa, later changing his name to Sidney Joel Cohen, and then Sidney James. Upon moving to the UK later in life, he claimed various previous occupations, including diamond cutter, dance tutor and boxer; in reality, he had trained and worked as a hairdresser. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sid_James
Interesting just came across it on you tube on tv brilliant looking back at how things used to be & best of all Sid James narrating it brilliant 🤩 I think things looked better back then pleased I stumbled across this thank you for posting it
Brought back Childhood Memories from before My Parents dragged Me to the other side of the world and tried to make an Australian of Me. Which didn’t work by the way.
Chris Hart Beginning of September 1967 I was a typical London Schoolboy. Two Months later I arrived in an Australian Bush Town (Peterborough, South Australia) on a “Cowboy Train” and was instantly Hated by all around Me because I came from England.
What a lovely little film, I recognize loads of faces from the old days in the "lane" clip, PRINCE MONOLULU with his horse racing tips, "TOSH" the tie king, great days, mind you, the road sweepers dont have to clear piles of rubbish away after the market these days, most of the time Petticoat Lane is half empty now, how times have changed.
I remember going to The Co-op with my Grannie before it became a supermarket - just big long counters on each side of the store - and the Co-op grocery cart was still pulled by a horse
Love the markets! No plastic packaging! Paper bags and at the end of the day you could haggle! Love these snippets of bygone times and Sid James was the perfect commentator!..
I didnt realise how old and over emotional I have become. I wept like a baby watching this. I had my apprenticeship paid for by a market butcher who caught me stealing eggs in Hoxton mkt and decided to give me a trade instead of reform school.
He truly was and thank you for saying that. From a trade to freemasonry Jimmy changed my life and showed me anyone can claw their way out of the gutter and poverty if they are true to themselves and others in life. I still miss him 30yrs after he passed away.
Brilliant video upload proper market back in the day not like the rubbish markets of today there is 500 of these videos all together be nice to see them all good video to watch anyway 😀👍
You should learn about how the British textile industry actually rose up. The historian H.H. Wilson wrote in 1853 that neither Manchester nor Paisley [i.e. Britain's industrial cotton textile economy] could have risen, even with steam power if the British had not systematically destroyed the compeition from the cheaper and superior quality Indian handloom cottons that had dominated the world market in the 18th Century. Indian cottons had revolutionized clothing for the European masses - cheap and comfortable - compared to woollens. Not only did the British impose huge tariff barriers [whilst preaching Free Trade], the turned India into a Captive Market for British goods [excluding foreign competition]. As Nick Robins confirms in his book on the East India Co. - the Brits also broke the fingers of Indian weavers and cut the thumbs of the best weavers of the finest Dhaka Muslins [which were highly prized and cost far more than silk]. A British Governor General commented that the plains of India are bleached with the bones of her weavers. The Brits banned industrial development in India [e.g. shipbuilding - the oldest seaworthy Royal Navy ship HMS Trincomalee was made in Indian in 1817 - and steelmaking - English experts stated that Indian wootz still was the best in the world in the 1790s] and turned India into a plantation whilst looting both her wealth [profits of India's exports] and foodgrains [killing tens of millions in dozens of manmade famines]. Research published in 2018 by Columbia U.P. showed that the Brits looted at least $45 Trillion [17 times the entire UK GDP in 2018] from India - the very word 'loot' is Hindi - reflecting this history. This loot [Clive of India became the richest man in Britain and the EIC men the nouveau riche 'nobs' from nawabs] financed the Industrial Revolution and much of Britain's and other Western development [type Jason Hickell India into Google for his article on this].
bigearedmouse17 And yet, the narration and photos clearly indicate a mixture of humanity bringing their goods and culture from all over the world. Surely a nation that had an empire knows about that.
@Craig Ebanez Craig Ebanez These were accounts I've heard from people who lived during the colonization. And your comment was juvenile. You don't need to have 1st hand experience to know this. No one invades another country with good intentions on their mind so if you think that's the case, then you are deluded.
@smadge100 Because psychological healing takes time? All those years of oppression take a huge toll on the psyche and get passed down to generations. Heck, I'm still reeling in from my own childhood traumas and it's frustrating because as much as I have the potential to live a beautiful, successful life, my past traumas still hold me back! Most adults don't heal themselves and pass their shit down to their children which keeps them in a cycle of abuse & dysfunction for generations and with far-reaching effects - until they all start to heal collectively. These countries have not reached stellar states of perfection, but from what I see, most of them are making progress, albeit at a slow pace. But you're making it seem as though they're all regressing, which isn't the case. As far as technological advancement is concerned, the Japanese are far ahead of everyone. And you forgot to include Singapore, which was a 3rd world country even during the British period but after independence, they rose rapidly.
There was a brief glimpse of a racing tipster calling out 'I've got a horse!' I think his name was Prince Monolulu and he went around race courses (and markets) selling a newsletter with his advice on horses to bet on. As to the narrator Sid James, he had some funny lines, such as buying a book because his table had a short leg.
This was in the city called London, it was the capital city for the the English people, they were once a proud people. Igf you look carefully today, you might see a few of them.....living in isolated communities in villages and highland cottages.

It's in these things that one can see MORE similarities than differences between different countries. Looks like and sounds like a street market here in Italy.
"Progress" - how perniciously subjective. Supermarkets became just that one step _further_ away, from self sufficiency, than was ALREADY the case. Even corner shops had a slightly more pronounced sense of independence about them. Today, superstores/hypermarkets/shopping centres/online buying is more mainstream - even though [we] didn't *actually* ask for them to begin with.

Come on let’s speak real who in there right mind would wish for there own Country to have loads of Foreign people living it ? Does China sit there crying because there’s not enough white westerners? Does India want more white people to move to there country?
