The Tube

BBC, 2012

  • "This superb series…is a complex, often amusing and occasionally shocking portrait of the huge effort that goes into running one of Londonʼs most essential services"

    The Telegraph

  • "A fantastic exploration of London Underground which has offered many remarkable moments, some touching, some anger-making and others downright depressing"

    The Guardian

This series goes behind the scenes of the world's oldest, biggest and busiest underground train network as it undergoes the biggest overhaul in its history. The series follows key members of the London Underground's 19,000-strong staff, from the CEO  to the litter pickers who clear miles of track every night. Drivers, station staff and emergency response workers give their unique perspective on the travelling public. A unique love letter to London in its sprawling, wonderful chaos.
