As a kid we used to love going to the British Museum and I would spend hours loitering in the Duveen Gallery looking at the Elgin Marbles. There are so many unbelievable jewels in London and all sorts of things to enjoy. It's very very important to see the Tower of London, the biggest building that we have remaining from Norman times so go and see the Tower of London, go and see the the crown jewels. And then you've got the biggest modern art museums in the world. Tate Modern has more visitors than any other museum. There is more green space in London than in any city in the world. Do you know what I like doing? I'm getting on my bike and cycling east through Victoria Park, right the way to the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, which is now connected up to the rest of East London and coming up in the most extraordinary way. I particularly like walking down the canal, I take my wife we walk down for a purpose, which is not just that it's romantic and beautiful, but because there is a pub called Narrow Boat which sells fantastic sausage and mash. London is very different from any other city in the world, in that I think it's gentler, and the architecture is unbelievably interesting. All the historic stuff is set off by this very very daring 21st century modern stuff and it's absolutely beautiful to look at as you can see today. And nowhere else is like that.
