The River Thames
The second of three monthly programmes in which JOHN SNAGGE takes a personal look at some of the historical and curious places to be seen in the capital. This month he looks at the River Thames. Starting at Tower Bridge, where new machinery has just been installed, he makes his way up and down the River on board a police launch and visits the world's only floating police station, Captain Scott's ship, The Discovery, the Port of London Authority, the cruiser HMS Belfast, the Thames Division museum at Wapping and the launching site of Brunei's ship The Great Eastern.
