The Tube: Keeping London Moving: Season 1, Episode 5

1 - 5: Episode 5

On a boiling hot July weekend TfL staff cannot let their guard slip as they find themselves contending with threatened assaults, lost children and fare evaders on the run among the many millions of passengers travelling through the network of roads, tube and trains.

It's also Pride weekend, and London is hosting one of the biggest parties in the country. One and half million proud folk descend on the capital, many heading for Soho in the heart of the city dressed to the nines, party hats at a jaunty angle and with merry mayhem on their minds. But it's a serious business for TfL staff who have to keep the capital moving when so many people cram into such a small part of the city, flocking from all points of the compass.
