Remarkable quality. So much tradition and character in British society at the time, amongst the British people. End of an era.

Call me whatever, but I still prefer the fashions of the Edwardian era compared to the stuff we wear today.🇦🇺

What Britain had & then proceeded to throw it all away....

If only we could have retained the good...style, discipline, aesthetics, loyalty, self respect, family, culture, tradition, etc, etc...

Great video, thanks for putting it together! Just in pure aesthetic terms, Edwardian female fashions are my favourite period in history, these hairstyles and gowns are so flattering and the daily wear seems to be fairly practical. I wouldn't want to live back then (I'll take my voting rights, higher education and social security systems, thank you very much ;-) ), but the quality and detailing of middle- and upper-class clothing back then is on a different level. The people who made them were real masters of their craft!

The color and sharpness make the people so much more relatable.

Photograph at 5:32 is Edward Francis Frazer in Royal Field Artillery uniform, apparently snapped in a studio in Waterford. The Ascot shot at 8:47 must be the Earl with his wife – the Countess, as there was never a title called “Wedell”. The Earl married his American beauty, Winnafreda Yuill, in 1907. Street scene 1906 is more likely 1911, Coronation year, as the military insignia over the doorway is GR, not ER, and the crude portrait looks like a dark haired George V. 124 years later No. 16 bus route still starts at Paddington Station, travelling up the Edgeware Road to Cricklewood Broadway, though now extended Tesco, Brent Park, which at the time would have been Green fields. Homeless women @16:4 are outside Christchurch Spitalfields churchyard. Ironic that the church at the time didn’t help them.

Enjoying this a lot. At 15.58 minutes can't help noticing how slim everybody was. No fast food chains and Mars Bars back then.

Very interesting photos. It was a beautiful era.

Thank-you for colourising these images, it really brings them to life!

My dad, born in 1920 in Indiana (to recently arrived parents from England), was named Albert Edward, after the late king (Queen Victorias eldest son). My fathers parents intended to return to England. BUT the crossing over to America from England had been so rough, my grandmother would not get on another ship to go back to England. So, they stayed in the U.S. I love your videos!

The picture of the homeless women on the benches was impactful.

I love how people dressed so well in those days. So much self respect, dignity and decorum.

Faces lost in time, wars would come. Millions of these young men and these young boys in this first picture will die in them You are only guaranteed the moment you are in, in time. The same for each of us today. That will never change.

Love the woman holding her cat for the photo 15:52 'everyday street scene 1906'. I think it's not quite an everyday street scene as there are coronation decorations.

Wonderful - many thanks for enabling us to see these scenes from the past. I do like the old cars (horseless carriages!) and taxis, and omnibuses. I would so like to be able to go back in time and spend a few days in London in the early 1900s.

my dad, who was born in 1910, came directly out of this world. Small wonder Jimi Hendrix was anathema! Hats we de rigeur it seems, and I wonder what the prevailing accent actually sounded like.

If only these people could have seen in the future what shitty world we live in today !!😢😢

Every time I watch these videos. I wonder what the life story is for each person. Sometimes I get lost in my imagination and dream up a life based on what I feel from the person in the picture, the animals too lol
