Fascinating! I worked in The Underground as electrician in the after math of The Kings Cross Fire earning 110 quid a night tax free installing a fireproof electrical infrastructure and afterwards I worked as design coordination engineer for the Waterloo Train Terminal that is build in part over the the old Bakerloo Line. I was reared beside a graveyard in Ireland so you can imagine how much this stuff appeals to me! Thanks for a really well assembled and hosted presentation.

That’s so cool. I’m sure that you have some really great stories to tell. Tunnels and metro tubes have always interested me. Probably because I grew up in New Orleans and since most of the city is below sea level we don’t have either of them except for a few tunnels that goes underneath canals and rivers. Also sure the construction trade stories are great too. As a Union Boilermaker I’ve seen my fare share of crazy things in the trades myself

43:25 Dr. Julian Litten I could listen to him speak on moslems all day. He sounds like an Olivanderian character from Harry Potter with the way he talks about them with such conviction.

With the way the world is going today I'd be fixing that bunker up and getting it ready for a survival situation...

32:24 Aww, he looks so proud. That's nice.

Big Winston described Paddock as claustrophobic, I'll buy a double helping of that!!!!!

The one poster caught my attention 'Keep your food preserved in rOk cartons. So can you tell us about the product? I can't find rOk on the internet at a carton manufacturer. Peaked my interest. Find the old style posters fascinating.

23:38 What's the name of the bullet shaped building in the middle of the screen?

That’s got to be Croydon Cemetery. Where I am doomed to spend eternity. Help . Costs a fortune to be buried.

Before I get more into this I bet she was Winston Churchill’s bunker during World War II

Why is it that sometimes he wears his orange watch on his right wrist and some other times on his left wrist? These KZbin "irregularities" are fascinating me. Wedding rings changing hands, bracelets, watches.... just fascinating!

He failed to mention Aldwych station can be toured and is even used for events!

I don't think I want to be under the alter. I'm a good person but I don't want to end up on view. I think I'd rather be left eaten up by insects in a forest somewhere.

Too many “ flash backs “ ( repeating clips over and over again ) ;waisting time . A lot of viewing but little information .

The story behind this was told years ago on a documentary on KZbin. This is being retold by some snotty nosed Richard Hammond wannabe.
