Hands.

To Londoners who were around in the 'swinging sixties', the city has changed a lot. The shops, fashion, architecture - they've all evolved. But one legend of 1960s Soho who strutted around in dapper suits when Rock 'n' Roll was pulsing from pubs is providing a vital link to that era by carrying on doing what he's always done.

 

George Skeggs, AKA Soho George, is still right here after 60 years. At 80 years old the great grandfather is still out and about at the local cafes and bars decked out in his signature blue/grey checked suit, Bolero style hat and bowling shoes and just about everyone who passes by stops to congratulate him on his appearance.
