Peter G. Now about Peter G. – here’s the gen. Like those other great Londoners Shakespeare, Dr. Johnson and Dickens, Peter does not hail from the metropolis. Yes, that northerner friendliness is to the manor born – cuz Peter’s a Nelson, Lancashire lad! Well, was. He’s all Londoner now, having coom doon a good few years ago to study at the Drama Centre. After an intermittently average acting career he has fallen literally on his feet with “the wonderful London Walks” (his phrase, but everybody, the smellfeasts excepted of course, would agree with him). Guiding the public through the streets of London combines his three great loves: architecture, history and showing off. Ok, you’ve read all about Peter G. Now if you’d like to hear from him, click here. You got it in one – we interviewed Peter G. for a London Calling podcast. Part of our Meet Your Guide series.
