These iconic London moments, featuring some of the world’s biggest stars, have been immortalised forever

One of my favourite things about being a journalist is having access to the Getty Image archives.

There you will find incredible photos, chronicling major moments in history from royal weddings to movie premieres.

I took a look back at some amazing retro photos of life in London during the 1960s.

There were hundreds of photos of superstar celebrities attending events in the capital.

Highlights include the Rolling Stones at London Airport, Princess Margaret’s wedding, and sexy Sean Connery lounging in his London flat.

These photos are a fantastic memento of the golden era of celebrities. Think high fashion, glitz, and glamour.
