Default The Tube

Has anyone been watching The Tube on ITV1 London.

Seems quite interesting.

Is it really like that?


For the staff who knows. But this programme never gives the passengers point
of view who "never stop whinging" according to our plucky heroinne down at
Kings Cross on last nights show. Maybe she'd whinge too if she had to pay
through the nose for a 2nd rate service with constant delays , unhelpful
staff ("Why the delay?" "Dunno", "When will the trains run again" "Dunno",
"Is there an alternative bus?" "Dunno", "Whats the bloody point of
you being here standing around in your Captain Scarlett uniform?" "Dunno"),
constant heard-it-all-before excuses, 50% of ticket machines always out of
order and only 1 person in the ticket office (victoria is especially good
for that) and general lack of information.

But no doubt someone will say I'm just being mean to poor LUL again and should
shutup and just put up with it. Yeah , whatever.
