Interestingly, in 1909 there occured the "Tottenham outrage, 2 Serbians had attempted to assassinate the then French president,and failing,fled to Scotland where they remained hidden for 1 year. Their names were Lapidus and Helfeld. They returned to Tottenham and attempted to rob a paint factory in Tottenham of its wages money being taken to the bank as normal by a young boy and a protector .several persons were shot. In those days the public could constitutionally carry arms for self defence, but the police then only carried wooden truncheons.The public joined forces with the police and a long chase commenced with several police casualties. Eventually on capture Helfeld shot himself and Iapidus was shot and killed by a member of the public. The only permitted police weapon arrived by bicycle with a police Sargeant carrying a Cutlass sword.

We have pavements in England not sidewalks. I doubt some of the pictures were of London.

The use of red and blue in these photos are quite overwhelming. I understand why the colours are used but in some photos just a little too much. I still enjoyed the video.

Great video!, thanks for sharing. I started to watch what I thought was going to be the usual one sided slop about London, wrong!, it was a fair sided account of rich and poor.

[@BelmontRose1]

At 3:47 time the "Gilded Age" commentary is incorrect. This is NOT London, but somewhere in the U.S.A. Look at the flag flying atop a building. It's the American flag! The building is NOT the American Embassy. So where exactly is this?????

[@MrDavidc]

If you look at the writing on the awning outside the Diaphone shop, on the left, it says '203 Regent Street'. The buildings must have all been extended since the photo., but 203 Regent St, is still on a corner.

[@BrightStyle]

This is London's Regent Street of the early 20th century, a little further Maddox Street... there was former American Embassy Chancery

[@ChrisGee-rx9gg]

WRONG! just trust BRIGHT STYLE

[@MrDaiseymay]

could it not be an American owned business ? they fly their flag more than we do.

[@MrDavidc]

Probably. There's a Fullers restaurant listed on Google as US based. Plus, the shop on the left, Diaphone is also an American owned company. But the awning says '23 Regent Street'.@@MrDaiseymay

[@BelmontRose1]

At 4:17 - the Picture of PIcadilly Square in London. You state the statue atop the fountain is Eros. WRONG! The stature atop the fountain is his brother - "ANTEROS." Anteros was the god of "requited" love or "Love Returned." Eros, his brother is NOT atop the fountain. Eros was the god of "Carnal Love." Eros was also known as Cupid. Get your facts straight.
