Excellent. He's a hero of mine too. I was thinking of going to see his collection at Southwold Pier this year, but London is much more convenient.

The Princess Louise is closer, and has the oldest toilets of any pub in London.

While I wasn't little when I was first introduced to Tim Hunkin, I did love the episodes I was able to catch on PBS here in the states.
