Summary
COI synopsis: Famous Canadian actor Bernard Braden sets out to discover London. What sort of place is London to live in? What sort of people live there? In this film he talks to lively youngsters, prosperous businessmen, busy shopkeepers, etc., and discovers the real richness of this old capital - its people. He finds also that London is a mixture of contrasts and surprises, bustle and quiet corners and something more than just the Tower, Westminster Abbey and other famous tourist spots.
