Mind the Gap: The Official TfL Podcast

TfL 25: Millennium Origins and TfL Memories - with Babatunde Aléshé


Listen Later

Do you remember where you were at the dawn of the new millennium (if you're old enough to remember, that is)

Tim Dunn takes you back to the year 2000 to chart the origins of Transport for London, which was created that year. In a whirlwind trek across London, Tim is joined by guests including comedian Babatunde Aléshé outside the O2, TfL boss Andy Lord in the high-security Surface Control Centre, and Archives Manager Tamara Thornhill deep in the archives office, to discuss what TfL is, what makes it so special, what came before and what might be coming next…

This is episode one of a brand new four-part series on TfL 25, celebrating the 25th birthday of Transport for London.
