On a related theme, I rememer reading that the Fleet line
tunnels extended as far as Wellington Street, which is where
the Lyceem theatre stands, IE just west of the Aldwich.

Your post brings up an interesting point: if the Jubilee Line
had not gone to Stratford and instead had continued to pass
through Charing Cross and through Aldywch, where would it have
gone?

Bank? Moorgate? Highbury and Islington? Would it have run all
the way out to Blackhorse Road and beyond?

That wouldn't be all that helpful though, or so I'd have thought.
It would just be like a sort of Victoria line mkII.

According to the Jubilee line driver's eye view DVD, to Aldwych,
Fenchurch Street, Woolwich and Thamesmead. It didn't because of various
changes like the proposal of Crossrail.
