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

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

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

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

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!

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

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

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.

Very interesting photos. It was a beautiful era.

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.

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.

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.

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

These were also hard times. No NHS, no real social care. We actually live in the best times now with housing, plentiful food, able to heat our homes. Morally maybe it was better but it was hard back then for the average family.

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.

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.

Very good and very enjoyable but again I would question some of the dating as being later than advertised owing to the number of motor vehicles and scarcity of horses.

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.
