A glimpse of the past . The people must be in their 70,s and 80,s now if they have,nt passed already . Makes you realise how quickly time passes and how short life is. Magical days the 60's . Wish l could go back .

Definitely thin was in. For those fashions. It looks lovely. The clothes. The colors

[@paulgabolinscy2502]

Those buses( some of which are still in use today, such as the Number 11 which runs along the Kings’ Road) were new then🇬🇧

Loved the look. How things changed from 1955 ten years earlier. The fashion was drastic 😊😮

[@ZanesZodiac]

beautiful footage! thanks so much for posting!

[@paperchain1239]

What happened?

[@vubear]

@Jkiouz Jkiouz The scene died at the end of the 80's. I was lucky enough to work there until 1990. It's all very sad.

[@terrybrookes8292]

not one copper in sight

[@1CFcooper]

Not one overweight person…

[@Embracing01]

I don't know why are so many in the UK today are overweight or slightly overweight. Not everyone goes to McDonald's eating crap food but they are still overweight and can't seem to lose weight no matter how much they try. I would say it's the crap in the supermarket food that's causing it, plus lack of real exercise. Most people, especially working class people, do not have the time to keep fit.

[@brendaflower7790]

Clothing materials were much better quality then.

[@JJo-et1tx]

Obsessed with the couple at 2.37. Sexiest man on the street.

[@forestsoceansmusic]

Looks a bit like MI5 surveillance footage -- more zoomed in on people's faces than their clothes.

[@johnjenks7812]

The guy was on some major pussy patrol!

[@decanney7229]
