London. 1927

Incredible footage of London in 1927 – with added colour to bring it to life. Amazing.

London is the last stop in an epic trip across Britain filmed in remarkable early colour and restored by the BFI National Archive.

London was the final stop in a marathon journey around Britain filmed as a series of cinema travelogues. Pioneering filmmaker Claude Friese-Greene brought these picture-postcard scenes to life with a specially-devised colour film process.
