1. If you look for those old rivers, then you'll find that tremendous history. Yeah. I really didn't know about these rivers, as in I'd heard that, there was the one in Sloan Square and so on. I didn't appreciate how much they were the fabric of London in the old days and the 1700s and before. It's extraordinary because all the names of the tube stations are a reflection of the rivers and their name.

2. I think this is a marvelous thing that you can actually go under a river, but be on a train in that way. I love that. It's astonishing. I've been to Sloan Square Station a lot. I've never noticed that. I've looked up photos and I now understand what this giant metallic pipe that sort of sits above the trackers. That's the exciting thing about London, is that really nobody has a full map of it.

3. I am sitting here with James Harkin, Andrew Hunter Murray and special guest, it's Sandy Toxfig. Once again, we have gathered around the microphones with our four favorite facts from the last seven days and in no particular order here we go. Starting with you, Sandy. My fact is that Sloan Square Underground Station in London has a river running through it. Actually, it runs over the trains. Wow.

Once again, we have gathered round the microphones with our four favourite facts from the last seven days, and in no particular order, here we go. Starting with you, Sandy. My fact is that Sloan Square Underground Station in London has a river running through it. Actually, does just run through it. It runs over the trains.
