• London Through A Moving Lens: Part 7

  • Five more tremendous televisual treats for your enjoyment.

    1 A Muppet Show classic, as Kermit conducts an interview about the London fog with an amphibious pearly king and a palace guard.

    2 On a similar note, here's Mel Torme, the Velvet Fog, singing 'A Foggy Day In London Town' on the Nat King Cole Show in the 1950s.

    3 And sticking with the Americans Do London theme, check out this brilliant clip of Lucille Ball in swinging London with Anthony Newley and assorted mods. Outstanding lyrics. (Thanks to Andrew at Mojo for the spot).

    4 Dan Cruickshank, very much an Englishman, rediscovers the Euston Arch in the River Lea.

    5 And finally, Colin Campbell and Dudley Sutton let rip at north London's legendary Ace Cafe from 1963's 'The Leather Boys'.

    Click here to see last week's films, featuring Peter Cook, ghosts and Bon Scott's lunchbox. And look out for a bonus LTAML featuring classics from Thames TV early next week.
