New face of London tourism

LONDON Planner, the official tourist guide, has just launched a series of Youtube videos to help visitors get round the capital.

And to present them, they have chosen Jay Foreman, the musical stand-up from Stanmore, whom we tipped as “one to watch” in 2016.

His one-minute films proffer useful tips on underground etiquette such as avoiding standing on the left of the escalator and where to get such great British meals as afternoon tea or curry.
