I colorized, restored and created a sound design for this video of London 1945 Post World War II, you can see the city under construction and the soldier still in the street with the civilians walking and life returning to normal. you can also see the city bustling day and night, big ben and views of the London waterfront and the beautiful old architetor of london. the scene that struck me was the family inside the house.
Video Restoration Process:
✔ FPS boosted to 60 frames per second
✔ Image resolution boosted up to HD
✔ Improved video sharpness and brightness
✔ Colorized only for the ambiance (not historically accurate)
✔added sound only for the ambiance
✔restoration:(stabilisation,denoise,cleand,deblur)
Please, be aware that colorization colors are not real and fake, colorization was made only for the ambiance and do not represent real historical data.

The people who say yes to that comment will be the most ignorant. No equal pay act (women were thus second class) No health and safety act. Smog, outside toilets, life expectancy considerably lower than now...The lists goes on.....i imagine a lot of people prefer the 40's simply because everyone was white. Simple racism is why so many say they prefer it

Those of us who were born shortly after the 2nd world war have had the best years. Yes it was tough at first but we had so much more freedom and people spoke to each other without all this modern technology. We made our own toys and spent much time outdoors climbing trees and enjoying ourselves in the natural countryside. As a child life was priceless.

Many of the houses you saw from the train are still there today and now fetch a fortune. And the main thing, St Paul's dominated the skyline, not like today. It felt so weird seeing it in colour and at a proper speed. What a fantastic job you did on the restoration. Thank you.

Both made the crossing on The Queen Mary: my mom on the deck with 5,000 pregnant war brides wrapped in blankets and my dad, below decks with 5,000 war wounded. I think the first footage is during the war. Everyone is still in uniform. Probably after the end of the European war. Pacific raged on for months afterward.

The grand buildings, the bombed out buildings and rubble, the cleared up rubble, the crumbling working class neighbourhoods, the poor with babies playing in the dirty streets, the middle class in nice schools, families enjoying a day in the park, the nightlife, all covered in a thick layer of coal-fired smog and soot. But the people look like they want to get on with life after a terrifying war. They seem tired, but there is hope.

If you get old enough to experience these changes then that is a gift in itself.

Actually a patchwork collection of short clips from the late 30s to latter 40s. The movie Honolulu is showing at a cinema in one clip: released in 1939. Some clips show American GIs; others recent bomb damage (1940 or 1944). Others again postwar housing projects...

Great, thanks for this. Some of the residential flats look very 50’s design and part of the post war building boom so not sure if it’s all ‘45.

One thing i enjoy in London is looking out of a train window at the cityscape, and i really enjoyed from 4:40 as I realised i've never seen really old footage of London from a train journey. I'm not sure exactly where the journey is taking place, but the views seem strangely familiar, but slightly off, with the usual modern day sights - tower blocks, dual carriageways, etc- all missing
