Travel around London: Andrew Martin

Travel Festival
Spoken Word / Sunday, 23 June 2013 - 2:00pm / St Pancras Room
£6.50 Online / Sunday Pass £25

In this zany and entertaining talk, Andrew Martin transports us through time and space into the bowels of the London underground. 

"All of us who have regularly stood on a London Underground platform waiting for a train must have wondered – if only theoretically – about how to electrocute ourselves.

The answer is given fully on pages 137 and 138 of Andrew Martin’s sparky history of the Tube. I won’t give it away; suffice to say that urinating on the live rail is not a good idea."
Tom Fort, The Telegraph (Read the full review..)

A limited number of Sunday Passes are available..
