Rare colour film of London in 1920s

My author friend Anne Booth alerted me to this stunning little documentary film of London in the 1920s, shot by filmmaker Claude Friese-Green. As I watched it I imagined Poppy jumping on and off those open-air double-decker buses as she criss-crosses London trying to solve the mystery. Enjoy!
