KINGS ROAD CHELSEA - STOCK SHOTS - NO SOUND - COLOUR 

Jane Marett look at how things were and then from early 1990s our politicians decided that mass uncontrolled immigration would be beneficial for us.If they have great skills that we need they are welcome but majority have not and are using our country to get All the benefits under the sun and we pay for them

Janet Benning mini skirts and long white boots look amazing.

there selling hippie wigs in woolworths man

@Jackfrost I guess people still had to go to individual stores for everything. Greengrocers,butchers,etc. Alot of walking and no internet or smartphones

That's a time when people talked to each other. Manner times, didn't see anyone help the lady who fell over. The shop names were Great,so dated but a moneyed area. The Mini Skirts are still good. And the color footage is in good condition. Memories of a very different time.🛵🚙🇬🇧

That’s because we all smoked cigarettes and drank coffee!

No GMO from the food companies.

Spot on the girls were so beautiful back then. Everyone seemed so alive eyes in front and engaging with the world around them ,not hunched over looking staring at mobile phones. God help England now.

No supermarkets or processed food. All shops were local greengrocers, fishmongers, bakers and butchers. If you didn't know how to eat from a plate with a fork and knife while in company, they would think there was something wrong with you.

Hadn't become a state of the USA then.accepting every rubbish food chain.

Look again. There is a fat copper at 5:26.

Because sugar was not added to every thing and people did not eat 24 hrs a day

Stop exaggerating. Most present day London residents are still slim. You've clearly never been to London.

That was a very famous London boutique.

@@golden.lights.twinkle2329 I don't doubt this, but I find it crazy anyway 🤭 but hey! It was the 60's!

The King's Road declined after 1981/1982 after the New Romantic era faded.

yeah...saw that, too! and people just kept walking; unless the tape went on to something else. I hope someone actually did help her though.

Camera was not on long enough to see what really happened

Buff Rogered She'd clearly been on a pub crawl and had a few too many at The Chelsea Potter, The Phoenix and The Markham Arms. Serves her right for getting pissssed in the middle of the day!

That was before decimalisation.

I also noticed the lack of overweight people. But back then very few fast food outlets except chip shop. And also people done more exercise like walk to work as not everyone had cars plus no vdeos, game consoles, mobiles & computers and people sat on their backsides 24/7. Hope woman who fell was ok.

THere are no obese people because that's London not Los Angeles.

@@stolpinski1 No processed foods and oils. Few takeaways. People ate real food.

@zondaintheair You shout at shop assistants?

ok nobody laughed -Typical

ROFLMAO ... too funny!!! A great place for women to shop for boyfriends and husbands I take it? Ha!!

Yeah, just covering the knicker line!

@@bernadettemurray2016 And not covering that when they bend forward.

@@golden.lights.twinkle2329 Many of those skirts today are just as short. There are some long-haired men there, looking ridiculous.

That's a good thing

Some mini skirts were only 14 inches, waist to hem. I lnow, i used to measure them. Tough job, but someone had to do it 😂

@Peter John Ayton Picasso closed years ago and it served overpriced mediocre food and was full of holier than thou old beatnik type dinosaur gurus. And if you were really unlucky, you'd find the old buffoon, Bob Geldof there barefoot and bellowing. I'm always on the lookout for a sartorial bargain at Peter Jones when I return there. It's always hit and miss. And you're right - most of the men's clothes there are conservative, frumpy and dull, but one can bag a gem there every now and then. The top floor cafe always a winner but you have to fight tooth and nail for a 'prime' window seat with a view. Based on your attire, you should've been sporting mustard corduroys, a shotgun under your arm and a couple of fine hunting dogs in tow.

@Blaster 2012 Yes, but as it's a Capri who cares? Thankfully it wasn't the TVR at the end of the video or the lovely Silver Shadow at 3:59.

I bought a tie in there once. That shop was in the Carnaby Street area though. I may still have it packed away somewhere.

So did you take 6? Or only 1? Ha!

Dude, that is the BC (best comment).

We 'celebrated' diversity.

Along came the 70's and flares. Thats what went wrong.

mass migration

By now she must be around 90 years old, hope coronavirus hasn't taken her down..

A man walks straight past her?!!

@@paulchedzey7276 That's London for you

Indeed my thoughts entirely!

I know right. In this day and age people will stop and help someone that falls. So glad we're living in the 2030's and not the 1960's.

The title of the video wasn't 'People falling over in London'.

So how do you know what happened after the camera left her?

@@golden.lights.twinkle2329 a good samaritan helped her up 😊😊😊

Thanks Born Dec 68 so I was alive just about

Punk era didn't begin until 1976.

@@Haberdashery22 Yea, ugliness, punk and hatred killed it for ever. I saw the first bottles of hate counter-culture thrown at hippies in Hyde Park.

Then she would have had 10 people, immediately, helping her up and enquiring as to her well being as I was 14 in Inner London then so I know. Now? A cyclist fell unconscious in Nigel Road, Peckham, and got mugged while laying on the floor... " Progress Innit ! Innit ?

She still lies there to this day. The poor old dear.

I never smoked once and I will be 68 in London this month but I am constantly hearing of deaths now from Guys from that era of my age, due to smoke-related diseases and illnesses..

did you see the women in the blue suit trip and fall on her face? That looked nasty. Not one person stopped to help her. Typical Brit stiff upper lip? Nowadays people would be at your side in seconds

Misanthrope Cutler only in London..lol

Nothing has changed much has it, people falling over in the street and no one helping Them. it could be todays World 🌎 full of un-careing people!

I'd go for spring 1970 as Minnie Swan published in late 1969, looks too warm for late 1969. I was working for the Royal borough of k&c council 1970-72 and house prices were starting to move, early 1971 you could buy a house in Notting Hill for about £10,000 if you could get a mortgage! Notting Hill was rough.

@@mikewa2 Agree. Ev Std billboards talk about Spring Fashion. Also at 5:00 you can see Mary Quant's Bazaar at 138a Kings Road. Look carefully and you see demolition rubble in the forecourt. Bazaar closed 1969.

1969

ROFLMAO ... you think black and indian is diverse? Hahahah. Where are the Transvestites and lesbians and flamboyant queers and Japanese manga girls and K-Pop kids and Taliban???

@@buffrogers6650 need more trans for sure, and some of the garb shown would be great if you are trans..or thinking or trans-ing, even if only for a weekend

Thats a very young Elton John.

@@buffrogers6650 Really?😯

sbcfilm few

None in this video no fat people .

me ... before I started working ou.

yes it was the 2 men in jackets who stepped aside who were the chief culprits! have to admit though she was caught a right ''pearler''! ''MIND THE STEP! haha''

Thats London for you..lol

How do you know no-one helped?

@@golden.lights.twinkle2329 watch tha video bro!! sheesh!

Precisely!

Hardly fair, as the camera panned away immediately we will never know what happened!

@@dream-67 She's still lying there. :0)

@@williamr3840 They built a monument there to commemorate her fall and being left there. And so now when anyone walks over the monument they too trip and fall, and still nobody does anything. Har har! :P

@@buffrogers6650 Eventually they will build a gigantic bronze statue of the enormous mountain of people who have piled up there on top of each other over the years. It will be entitled, simply, 'Shopping Trip'. :0)

They were a chain, there was one in Birmingham, Leicester and Coventry.

I saw a couple of West Indians.

@@golden.lights.twinkle2329 She didnt. Only sees white. Lol

@@Isleofskye fred west and Peter Sutcliffe would agree with you

@@johnathandaviddunster38 Woyld you rather have dinner with Fred West or Bill Cosby? That is the question.

@@Isleofskye neither , why do you ask ???

VAL VLOG This was filmed in 1969.

jabasto - I guess at 1969-70

1970 to be exact

eh there were plenty of immigrants just in other areas

I'm sure all those other countries said the same thing before the Brits turned up to colonise them.

wow they look commercial

Jaja, I hate black leggings too😂

You guys are racist. Whats wrong with black leggy woman? ha!

No.

I guess you prefer obese people with unwashed hair wearing torn jeans and t-shirts that say 'F U'.

@@golden.lights.twinkle2329 like torn jeans and tshirts weren´t around then

Oh behave!! Ha ha!!

Everyone has to grow old, the alternative's even worse :D Every dog has it's day, as the saying goes....

You mean fun and interesting fashion

Yes, gay pride fashion hadnt yet evolved. Haaaa!!
