  • Young men re-enact the former border crossing between Communist East and West Germany during the Cold War at the site of the former Checkpoint Charlie, the border. The Berlin Wall was a barrier constructed by the German Democratic Republic (GDR, East Germany) starting on 13 August 1961, that completely cut off (by land) West Berlin from surrounding East Germany and from East Berlin. The Eastern Bloc claimed that the wall was erected to protect its population from fascist elements conspiring to prevent the "will of the people" in building a socialist state in East Germany. In practice, the Wall served to prevent the massive emigration and defection that marked Germany and the communist Eastern Bloc during the post-World War II period.

  • Accompanied by a pianist, south Londoners sit outside their rail station on whose wall is a screening of the silent film Easy Street starring a former local boy, Charlie Chaplin, kicking off a series of the Free Film Festival in Herne Hill in the London borough of Lambeth. There is no official record of his birth although Chaplin believed he was born at East Street in nearby Walworth. Chaplin's childhood was fraught with poverty and hardship, making his eventual trajectory 'the most dramatic of all the rags to riches stories ever told'. Easy Street is a 1917 short comedy. In the film, the police are failing to maintain law and order and so it is Chaplin, as the Little Tramp character, who steps forward (rather reluctantly) to rid the street of bullies, help the poor, save women from madmen and generally keep the peace.

  • A large banner proclaiming Bollocks To Brexit above the south London headquarters of Pimlico Plumbers, on 10th March 2019, in London, England. The controversial boss of Pimlico Plumbers is refusing to take down a giant “bollocks to Brexit” sign on the roof of his HQ, despite the local council ordering him to remove it or face prosecution. Bos Charlie Mullins is refusing to take down the giant sign on the roof of his company HQ, despite the local council ordering him to remove it or face prosecution. Mullins cites freedom of speech and a court case involving punk band the Sex Pistols to oppose Lambeth Council’s contention that the 100ft-long sign, visible to train passengers arriving at Waterloo Station, contravenes planning law.
