An insightful series of pictures portraying life during the seventies.

I love the Crowd waiting for the Queen Mother; socialist Ian Mikardo MP is staring directly into the camera and saying ‘I don’t really want to be here’ and Jack Profumo looks like a young boy waiting for the arrival of the Flying Scotsman. All brilliant.

I’m not sure which was more intimidating – the putative Fourth Reich or West Ham being one down. And while not a monarchist, I don’t believe That Hat should have been inflicted on the Queen Mum. Clearly, it had felled Profumo already.
