No way John said he’s going Richmond Park to Greenwich 💀 mans prepared to spend a whole day underground

[@2552legoboy]

I forgot coming back to London you have to spend hours a day getting around wether it’s west to east north to south

[@thehopeofeden597]

Thank god, he pointed out that the London Eye is overrated. Every other place you can think of is absolute *fire* but the Eye ungodly slow.

[@azzu12]

weird way to ask me on a date but, yes.

[@thehopeofeden597]

Between the fit, the tattoos and the clear skin - who has more game than John Boyega? No one. No one has more game than John Boyega.

He also had a wish of being a doctor he wrote his hope to actually change the world

[@frasermcintosh8801]

the imax is not near woolwich 🤨

[@bl00dhoney]

sure he meant Waterloo - it was a slip of the tongue

[@ugnsotsm57]

how can u talk theatre and not mention the strand? thats the braodway of London and also any Peckham Natives will shout to Choumert Road as the Shopping street for the herbs and spices!

[@bl00dhoney]

The Strand is full of commercial theatre - not art.

[@adedamolaadeleke6228]

His top's alright.

It's past nine actually

[@onenation8707]

If I had the money, Richmond is the only area in London I would live in it's still very green with a nice balance of ethnicities with Londoners still living there. The rest of London is a concrete jungle, not for me.

[@rs-gamer98]

London has the best tube lol in turkey has AC not in London

[@k2411871]

They have mouses the size of buses, and these things are grumpy

[@cruisechill1813]

So he didnt even go anywhere in london he just sat there talking about it 🤔

[@theShadowKnightSAS]

That's north Greenwich not actual Greenwich that you want to visit

[@user-pv3lk7nz6d]

Where you living now JOhn because a lot of these suggestions are incredibly generic. Nightlife- corsica studios, fold, venue MOT, The Cause.

[@quasili8954]

i don't think he's popping pills and listening to techno at the weekend lol

[@weego2585]

Playing with deers?

Local nigerian delicacies...i got a bad feeling about this

[@yuliakiseleva1900]

[@YG-rr6zv]

You can only enjoy London as a tourist but if you were born and raised there (like myself) - every street corner and building looks practically the same and boring

[@Ashtarynsworld]

I definitely want to live in London I love animals I'm American we definitely can not touch deer bears we cant touch any animals who live in the wild over here . I blame it on Chris Columbus and his chaos and havoc he brought on America SOB

[@paulg0170]

First thing I would do is leave London. Go,up north.
