been dependent people I mean I've never
been here before except on the Monopoly
board everything that it doesn't count
if you'd been to Pinterest remember not
reporting would you like to spend the
day on CGC train to go to Southend I
would love to - Victoria - the - the
Victoria ability barrier
[Music]
how many yes an old-line you wouldn't
really come here and there you commute
into the city and live out an effort and
doesn't connect up with a dictation you
have we won't agree Tower Hill that what
makes it slightly unusual for a London
terminus where we going today we are
here in turn Street and we're going to
go an old agrarian those battle of el
dragón
and we're going to head to the pit see
and then go all the way to shoot Venus
after which we'll go back to spice and
sensual
[Music]
now I'm cooking veined of community
banks so one our second Raynham there's
a random and Ken as well
yeah and aren't you quite close together
geographically speaking but if they go
all the way to London top you know
come on random and then come all the way
back out to get the other one also
raining is the last stop in London
before we head out into SF I'm going to
have to state the obvious it's quite
industrial Valley that's how it's going
under the Eurostar that would H is the
help I sleep on
I've just been reliably informed that
this electricity pylon and the one
that's just out of evil industries are
the tallest in the UK the flight routes
change to what we told you earlier and
realize there's a way of doing it which
has no changes are coming from so we're
now going to change at stand the globe
reverse and go to what mentor and then
just get one trainee all the way through
South End stupidest and double back and
cut the south end which those are why
yes those they can think of it earlier
so this is Tilbury tone or right Mexico
burdock and it was in 1958 m400 landed
in two wars and they used to be a
passenger train going from here down to
the dachsies a single track there it's
the busiest single platform stations in
the whole of the country you're welcome
would you like to now especially in fact
that are condemned always so oculus
patient of the town of found the problem
which is in yes but we're about to pass
by North London and theories of the
established province populace that is
outside the m25 but inside the Greater
London boundary to my left tube trains
to my right
bigboy trains must not get tube train
unless it's so hard any other comfort
minister to get tube trains and today I
adventure eat for the first time ever on
the mainline I think your money saying
that CTC are pretty much always the most
on-time operator in London because they
have a very simple network it doesn't
really interlock with any other
operators think of a sudden they have to
like merge with Southwest and
southeastern you know basically the
simpler allow it if you just have a line
that's a layer there and nothing that
crosses it or no points then it's just
easy to run a train comports all day we
need to rebuild all the Britain's
railways with with this with a fewer
number of junctions as possible kids we
make that
hey Matt CTC on time
wait a condom unlike the organization
it's appreciated mr. front for the train
to Southend we miss lovely Shan hello
where'd you come from today I am come
all the way from tasting little
something I come from Hastings off into
London and then out so that one or two
comes over there it's my birthday and we
are going to fish is an Islamic musical
access to village in terrific today
hasn't have all Ukrainian birthday
what's the show not on anywhere on the
south coast oh yeah but I really want to
go with birthday and I quite like it
Jim Racine do you think is easier today
to get the trained into right now would
you consider never driving to South End
or if you just think that at the time I
said on the craft official and it was it
took about three and a half hours which
is give or take us to save for about
fifteen minutes but I found it I am
today what you get the trains more
pressing a quiet that gets quite hot on
your searching thank you enjoy your show
have you got so thank you one happy
customer to Burnett end of the line
except it's not quite end of line I can
already see get over the hair where it
is this is a little bit like Weymouth
the track but my feet are literally
standing on right now I don't think have
ever been decommissioned except this
wasn't a passenger line this was a
Ministry of Defense an mo D line and
that direction and beyond there is a
military you so near our this is so
random
it's like there's a someone's just like
left a couch here if I was if I was
releasing my first solo album I would
fit on the couch and be like this is me
doing something wacky sat on the ket til
I sit on the couch and one will pretend
it's my album cover all right
do I still look like poignant like or
like all newsy lights please buy my
album in the distance on a clear day you
could probably see Margate in Kent
properly it's really only one thing you
can do when you come to South End and
let's go to the pier so basically if
there's a giant pier spins that
stretches out into the feet and the best
thing about it is that there's a railway
a miniature railway that runs out onto
the pier now it's just gone one o'clock
I know that we've just missed the one
o'clock train and there every hour so we
probably haven't got time to wait for
the two o'clock train which makes me a
little bit sad but we'll go and see
where the Southend pier railway is even
if we don't actually get to go on a
train the exciting news is I thought
things are hourly they're hop out look
we can get the one person
then come to back
[Music]
we've just pop out at Leon see because
we've said it the term is they're very
quaint and also the thin Tate Gallery
which has inside the galleries and
original theatre it's sort of part of
the furniture of the gallery itself
[Music]

only two stations in the whole of the
country that are above water

also the Victorian where you can go
shopping for Victoria
