I found these at YouTube after one of them was mentioned at a group:

Hyde Park 1926

There are more of London during different years, too. I find it interesting to see some of the things Bertie and Jeeves would have been familiar with.

If you are interested in this, Chariots of Fire has scenes of England in the 20s including some wonderful views of Eton. {In the film it's called Cambridge but if you listen to the commentary the actual filming took place at Eton}. Stephen Fry is in Chariots but I couldn't find him in the mentioned scene.

Thanks for these! I haven't seen Chariots of Fire and I had no idea Stephen had a role in it. I'm getting it from the library for next weekend.

You're welcome. He's in a crowd of people and I couldn't find him. The commentary will tell you at what point he's in the film. The views of Eton are great.

Always helps a good bit to get a feel of the era. Thanks for those!
