Описание: As the nations oldest serving detectives, we know more about London than almost anyone. After all, weve been walking its streets and impulsively arresting its citizens for decades. Who better to take you through its less savoury side? Well be chatting about odd buildings, odder characters, lost venues, forgotten disasters, confusing routes, dubious gossip, illicit pleasures and hidden pubs.

Well be making all sorts of odd connections and showing you why its almost impossible to separate fact from fiction in London. With the help of some of our more disreputable friends, each an argumentative and unreliable expert in his or her own dodgy field, well explain why some streets have genders, why only two Londoners got to meet Dracula, how a department store and a prison played tricks on your mind, when a theatre got stranded in the past, how a building vanished in plain sight, what excited Charlotte Bronte about the city and where the devils hide in London. We hope to capture something of the citys restless spirit by wilfully wandering off course, and it goes without saying that well bluff and bamboozle you along the way but thats all part of the fun.

History is what you remember. London is what you forget (and weve forgotten a lot). So please do join us on this magical mystery tour of our city.

Who knows where well end up?
