Need to get to your London destination quicker? Well you've come to the right place. I'm Ray Black, and I know the short cut.

It's cleaner too - Mrs B has made us leave out the swearing, for the children.

Anyway, if you've ever asked yourself what colour eyes London has, then you're not alone. It turns out, like Kim Cattrall in Big Trouble in Little China, her eyes are green. But unlike Kim Cattrall in Big Trouble in Little China, London's are green in the environmental sense. And she's only got one: The London Eye.

Listen to this episode to find out why.

Told you we'd get there quicker.
