The Lord Mayor's Show S2012E01 - 2012

A pageant of colour and carnival as horses, classic motor vehicles, marching bands and half a million spectators join the Lord Mayor and his golden state coach in the world's largest un-rehearsed parade through the streets of London. Helen Skelton and Sonali Shah meet some of the 6,500 parade participants and Paul Dickenson sets the scene, as the BBC celebrates the 685th Lord Mayor of London.
