Initial BBC reports claimed a few thousand protestors. Hopefully these clips will disprove that farcical figure. Trafalgar Square was absolutely packed and numbers were nearer 100,000.
First 2 clips are MPEG1 format and will play on any computer with nothing extra needed. 3'rd clip allows you to go on a virtual reality tour of the crowds in the square but you need Quicktime 6 installed.

The first clip shows the start of the march in Hyde Park moving towards Speakers Corner. Thousands had already moved out of view into Park Lane and likewise thousands were obscured by trees towards the back of the march.
Second clip is a quick 360 degree spin around the crowds in Trafalgar Sq where the march ended with speeches.
Third clip allows you to go on your own virtual reality tour of the crowds. Click and drag within the movie window for a spacey effect. You must have Quicktime player 6 or higher installed for this to work. Download it from here:

Unfortunately it's a 10 meg download which is a bit of an ordeal for dial-up users. If the movie shows as a flurry of frames then your version of quicktime is too old. Also Alternative Quicktime from:
