Forget Dick Van Dyke and his dubious cockney accent and come and see the real thing! Scores of genuine Pearlies in their sequined outfits gather for their annual church service.

Although you won't be allowed inside the church, there'll be fine photo opportunities when the Pearlies line up on the steps before and after the service.

St.Martin-in-the-Fields church, Trafalgar Square
