The London Fields cum Broadway market in Hackney is the focal point of `Eastern Promises`, the film which opens this year`s London Film Festival.
The market itself has seen many changes not the least of which is the foodie market which supplants many of the old, established businesses.
I have personally witnessed some of the pie and mash shop owners weeping whilst their restaurants sit empty as tourists make for the foodie stalls in the Broadway market.
So let`s have a wander around the Broadway market? I`ll tell you lots about the changes and current state of affairs.

This is nonsense. There never was a London Fields market. There was a street market on Broadway which died more than a decade ago. The community has revived it. The street - stalls and shops- is now coming back to life. Sorry, folks, no Dick van Dyke Mockney here.
