Southwark station

15 Aug 2007
Inside and outside the newest station on the London Underground network. The station is called 'Southwark' and is served by the Jubilee Line. First we see a bus on the route 100 depart, then we enter the station and see departing and arriving trains.

Nice clip. miss there so much, all those scenes and sounds are so familiar. Used to pass through the station to Waterloo's train's platform, can save loads time :)

How I miss this everyday journey

I work for the company that fitted-out the stations on the Jubilee Line Extension some years ago. Much of what you see here is what we made and fitted. I spent several years fitting out London Bridge underground station and I'm proud of the result. I'm surprised, though, that you didn't get pulled up for filming without the necessary permit?

@arcadia449 Thanks, you should be proud, JLE stations are in my opinion masterpieces of station design! This film was shot in 2007 and there was no permit necessary for non-commercial filming at that time. Just a couple of "guidelines" to follow (no tripod, no flash, no filming of any illegal or similar activities and so on). The only difference nowadays as far as I can see is that it costs £40 to get a permit, terms and conditions for filming are practically speaking the same.

@cyclist68 Thanks! No, I am very open with my filming. I would think that a big camera and a bag with camera equipment make me look too "serious" in some mysterious way... :) I have filmed lots of stations and trains in different countries and I have got very few questions from staff, police etc. In all cases polite and excusing and they have never asked me to stop. One exception might be once when I accidentally used flash in a London tube station though, never use flash in tunnels...
