He’s a brilliant guide. *You’ll have seen him in any number of “London” programmes, from London’s Burning to The Bill, etc. And you can hear Richard here – it’s a Podcast he did for us about where he’s from and where he’s coming from.

Let him show you a bit of it: magical landmarks, Tower Bridge, the London Eye, secret passageways you won’t have heard of, etc.
