These young folks look so happy about being featured in a newsreel! They are the counterculture of London in 1960.
The hipsters of their day, they wore vintage clothing and did whatever it took to be different from what came before. Maybe they would eventually grow up to be mods, or rockers, or even (gasp) hippies! By the way, I wonder how much “lemonade” they drank when the cameras weren’t there to record the festivities. -via Boing Boing
