Londonist Out Loud is presented and produced by N Quentin Woolf. This week’s show comes from the Horniman Museum
This week’s guests are:
- Paolo Viscardi: Deputy Keeper of Natural History at the Horniman Museum and zoological blogger
- Geoff Marshall: Former holder of the record for visiting all the Tube stations in one day, blogger and film-maker
Under discussion: the wonders of the Horniman Museum, including the famous walrus; the Great Smog of 1952, the closure of A&E units, the 'Honesty Shop' in St Katharine Docks, drunk and disorderly behaviour, London's changing skyline, future transport plans and Boris Johnson's trip to India. Our question of the week is 'Where is the Centre of London'. As usual, the guests are tested with the historical quiz.
Marie Benton also introduces The Choir With No Name and their upcoming gig at Union Chapel in Islington on 11 December.
