We begin the tour at the North end of one of London's most intruiging bridges. Here's where the scene is really set. What most people would describe as a normal Thames crossing we will explain that it's a lot more than that. Suspicious murders, pirate heists and illegal drinking dens. You'll never look at the bridge the same.

The street is our backdrop on this historical pub tour. This was once the beating heart of Britain's newspaper industry. Deals were done, reputations ruined and legends made in the alleyways and back streets around this part of town. Once destroyed by the great fire of London the area rose from the flames to become the epi-centre of political scandal and intrigue. If the walls could talk around here it would make the greatest film ever.

There's been a church here since the 6th century. St Bride's is known to be the inspiration for modern day wedding cakes. You'll see why when we visit. There's dedications to journalists around the world who have lost their lives in pursuit of the truth. If we're lucky we might pass by when the choir are in full voice. A haunting but peaceful experience.

One of the pubs we visit used to be a branch of the Bank of England. But why would the bank want a branc here?? Well, we're right next door to the biggest law courts in the country so you might need some quick access to bail money.

Scene of where some of Britain's most notourious criminals have met their fate. The area is a bustling hive of legal eagles arguing and debating the days cases. Makes for some great ear wigging and some fantastic stories.
