Every Sunday we’ll pluck just one walk from the vast London Walks repertoire and put it centre stage.A London Walk costs £10 – £8 concession. To join a London Walk, simply meet your guide at the designated tube station at the appointed time. Details of all London Walks can be found at www.walks.com.
But if you only
take one walking tour this week, why not make it…
The Tardis on Thames Pub Walk.
The Doctor Who Pub walk meets at Westminster tube
(exit 4) Saturday 24th September at 7.15pm
Join us on an intergalactic journey without leaving
the banks of the Thames never mind the planet! “Tardis on Thames – Doctor Who
by The River – The Pub Walk” is a pass to walk in the footsteps of various
Doctors, Assistants and even Cybermen!
See where the Daleks attempted to take over the earth
in 1964, stand at the very spot where the Doctor and Rose sealed their
friendship in 2005. Help to crack the code troubling one William Shakespeare at
the historic Globe Theatre. This fun, iconic walk takes us through some of the
classic moments in Doctor Who history whilst at the same time taking in a
couple of great pubs and several of the capital's seminal landmarks. Just how
did The London Eye help save the world? How did the Ogrons walk the Southbank
without being noticed? We even come to face to face with the Doctor's greatest
enemy of all – ITV! Join actor, writer and Doctor Who aficionado Jolyon as he
guides you through the thrills and spills of the cosmos wearing a long scarf
and packing at least two packets of jelly babies – would you like one?

About
Your Guide
Jolyon
is our Doctor Who specialist. And I mean specialist. The author of Was
Conceived in a Dalek, he's a serious student of Doctor Who and his world. Let
alone a major aficionado (cheerfully admits to "35 years of
obsession" with DW). Potent combination, that. He's a big league actor –
and a big talent. Jolyon's credits range from the National Theatre to the West
End to comedy venues (writing it and performing it – yes, he's done his time as
a stand-up) to being a Dame-sel in Dis-stress in Pantoland (every Christmas
season since the century began [well, practically] he's donned a frock and
caused no end of theatrical mayhem as a Pantomime Dame). And was ever comic
actor better named? I mean Jolyon combines Jolly and Joy.
