Video 125 Ltd. The Tube (ITV series 1 & 2)

Get beneath the surface of the London Underground with this fascinating series originally shown in the London region of ITV and now available on one DVD.

LUL opened its doors to television to record the day to day life of some of its 16,500 staff. This award-winning series takes us behind the scenes to tell the story of some of the dedicated and colourful characters who work for LUL, doing a difficult job under often challenging and stressful circumstances.

We discover many surprising things about the complexities of running an over-stretched, under-funded and creaking network. Sometimes tragic and other times hilarious situations pepper the series revealing what it's like to work and travel beneath a thriving metropolis.

This DVD covers the first two series -13 episodes plus an LUL timeline, picture gallery and episode chapters.
