Mon, 24 November 2008 Victoria is a public transport hub in the centre of London, with two rail stations joined together serving the counties of Kent (to Dover) and Sussex (to Brighton).
The location also features a bus and coach depot, and a major London Underground interchange too. No wonder the main views are of thousands of people passing through Victoria from one transport mode to the next!
We start not far outside London Victoria Railway station, taking a look at the architecture both ancient and modern, from a Victorian Theatre (currently playing 'Billy Elliot - The Musical') to an ornate public house, to the 'shard of glass' housing Microsoft's central London offices at 100 Victoria Street.
We then venture towards the main station. You can see the differing architectures of the two conjoined rail houses. As we venture inside you can see the mix of old and new, from old architecture to modern technology signs and shop fronts.
And the people - thousands of them - all moving from one transport mode to the next, or watching the electronic timetable screens waiting to be told that their train is ready, and which platform they must head to. Comments[0] |
Mon, 17 November 2008 I have had some great feedback from the 'Dinosaurs!' episode filmed at the Natural History Museum, so I pencilled in a visit to the next-door Science Museum when I was visiting colleagues in central London. I couldn't stay long but I wanted to give you a 'sampler' of what to expect from this museum, featuring every aspect of Science from antique engineering to the latest technology. What you see in this episode is just the ground floor. There are 6+ floors packed with exhibits so you really need a day to take it all in. Plus: An invitation to join the London Landscape TV Viewers Group on Facebook. Come and join in the conversation, influence future filming, and get even more out of viewing this podcast!

Sat, 8 November 2008 Brompton is a beautiful ornate district of London close to Knightsbridge.
So on a bright November morning I took the camera to a charming square surrounded by old houses, and visited Brompton Oratory, a church (where filming is not officially allowed) that shows off the best of the passion of religious architecture. Comments[1] |
