• Origins of the Show The Lord Mayor's Show has its roots in an early mediæval power play, as bad King John attempts to get London on his side and his Barons use the City as a base from which to mount their rebellion.
• Calamities and obstructions Despite the many challenges of running a mediaeval procession through modern London, the Lord Mayor’s Show hasn’t been cancelled since 1852, when it made way for the Duke of Wellington’s funeral.
• Art and literature The Lord Mayor’s Show has inspired many writers over its eight centuries, from Pepys (who was annoyed) and Shakespeare to Hitchcock and Fleming, and appears in some of the world’s great paintings.
