It's always mind blowing seeing old pictures of London like that. The George Tavern must have seen some shit in its time.

It's mind blowing to me that that pic was only 6 years before I moved to London. And there were still homeless around Spitalfields 20 years after the picture in that gallery was taken.

Stark. That'll have to be watched later.

James Nachtwey though. What a guy.

It's worth it. Very unusual to hear Nachtwey getting emotional.

I’m really happy to be involved with the Invisible Britain project. It’s going to give a great insight into what people are really thinking about the current climate across the UK. Documenting people’s lives and opinions; views that should be heard and broadcast to a wider audience.
