Yeah, it's been 24 years since Brittany did it again. The real Slim Shady was asked to stand up and Craig David shared what he got up to over the last seven days. Love that.

I'm waiting for the 7,000 Britannia to come through the area, hauling the Sunset Steam Express. So it left Victoria at 1816 and then steamed through the London suburbs of West Brompton, Shepherd's Bush, Brentford, Feltham, and then beginning a steep climb through the Surrey Hills as the sun set. Chertsey around half seven, Woking 8.15.

Now it's on its way from Gomshall, due in Redhill, round about nine o'clock, before onward travel to Purley, East Croydon, Streatham Common, Clapham Junction, and reaching London, Victoria again at ten tonight. So I'm I'm on that kind of pedestrian bridge. It's actually a bit of a road bridge just here. And half a dozen other people here waiting as well, waiting for the scene.

The website blurb for the journey says, "...often described as one of England's finest landscapes, the Surrey Hills stretch across the chalk north downs. The grandeur and beauty of these hills embrace an amazing variety of countryside, from rolling chalk downs and flower-rich grasslands to acid heaths and woodlands. Bask in the sun-kissed beauty of these glorious surroundings."

alternatively known as the Britannia Class, and the first of 55 to be built by British Railways in Crewe back in 1951.
