The sights and sounds of Christmas in the capital reflect the place itself - an extraordinary montage of tradition and change, glamour, pathos, enterprise, curiosity, possibility, poignance and generosity. I asked student film maker Max Curwen-Bingley to collect some seasonal scenes from the city, concentrating on variety and musicality. Here’s what he found.
From Good King Wenceslas on Oxford Street to Oh Come All Ye Faithful in Trafalgar Square, with room for reggae at Oxford Circus too. That’s the spirit. Merry Christmas from London to readers everywhere.
