Presenter Asha Gill does her bit to save London
from submerging six feet underwater, counts the city’s bat population
and peeks inside the tomb of Kama Sutra guru Sir Richard Burton with
nutty naturalist Bridget Nicholls.
Foot-stomping bus conductor Duke Baysee
fills a classic red double-decker bus with the blues as he drops
Asha at iconic London nightclub Kashpoint. She then spends the night
talking turkey with club promoter Matthew Glamorre
in the ladies loo.
Charged by the chaps at the Civilise the City campaign,
Michael Attree teaches Asha how to appreciate the
values of a British gent and initiates her into the eccentric world
of mudlarking on the River Thames.
Asha meets celebrity erotica shop entrepreneur Sam
Roddick for an insight into Londoners' mating-and-dating
habits and tries on the alternative crown jewels in the magical
glass workshop of Alternative Miss World creator Andrew
Logan. Asha and Bridget glam up for the outrageous beauty
pageant with London’s demi monde and Mickey Mouse
makes a guest appearance in a most unlikely place.
