Ok then whats the shortest distance on the Underground?

Leicester Square to Covent Garden, 0.16 mile (0.26 km).

Enbankment to Charing Cross on the Northern Line can't be much
longer either, but I don't know how far it is.

According to Clive Feather's site http://www.davros.org/rail/culg/ ,
it's also 0.26 km to the nearest 10 metres. The LU site says that
Leicester Square to Covent Garden is the shortest.

IIRC, Leicester Square to Covent Garden is the shortest distance by
rail, but Embankment to Charing Cross (Northern) is the shortest as
the crow flies.
