How do you know if the tube you're about to get on is going east or
west, north or south? Does it show the name of the next stop, or the
name of the last stop at the very end of its journey?

The trains themselves have the name of their destination on the front,
which may not be the last station on the line. If you're wondering
how to know which platform to stand on, the directional signs are easy
to read, e.g.http://www.dkimages.com/discover/pre...777/228473.JPG

The trains quite often carry the wrong destination. Many times I have
got on south bound trains at Camden apparently going to Edgware and
many a time there have been arguements between the driver and the
station staff as to whether it was a Bank or Charing Cross train.
