  • Rylan Home for Christmas
    Dec 22 2023
    Join TV Presenter and Broadcaster Rylan on the ultimate Christmas commute! Tim Dunn gets special permission to take Rylan on a ride in the driver’s cab on a Central line Train, all the way from Oxford Circus to Epping. You may not know, but Rylan is a self-confessed Tube obsessive, and cannot hold back his excitement. He tells Tim about how he fell in love with the Tube in his childhood, the Tube station he's built in his garage, what the London Underground means to him and how it's shaped his life. Rylan and Tim get an incredible view of the tunnels and secrets you normally don't get to see from the driver's cab at the back of the train - and try not to push any buttons. The festive adventure, and Rylan's dream trip, continues when the pair board a vintage Routemaster bus, which takes them to a magical railway - and a very special Christmas steam train. Thanks to the TfL staff, plus staff & volunteers of the Epping Ongar Railway - who helped us make this episode.

    Like the Tube itself, Amy Lamé is a London icon and legend - and she asks Tim to meet her at one of London’s busiest stations for nightlife, Tottenham Court Road, to talk about her role with the Mayor of London as ‘Night Czar’. What does that mean - and how important has the night tube been for London’s communities and businesses, including Amy’s famous club nights? For 160 years, the London Underground has been connecting people and places in so many ways, but a shared love for everything about the system has created a community in itself. Tim heads west on the Piccadilly line to meet his old friend, and one of the internet’s best-known Tube enthusiasts, video producer Geoff Marshall, Tim and Geoff chat about the joys, delights and friendships that the London Underground can bring – and how Geoff’s relationship with the Tube grew from an old London Atlas that was collected by his grandfather… Follow presenter Tim Dunn Mind The Gap is an official podcast from Transport for London (TfL).
