Games Makers, Olympic volunteers, Cheerleaders, marching bands, donkeys, Pearlies, dignitaries, dancers and Star Wars characters were all part of this year's colourful New Year's Day parade.
Merton Council scooped an award for best entry in the parade for the second year running, closely followed by the council it tied with last year, Westminster.
If you missed the parade, there are video highlights available here.
