Apologies for the delay, I was on dead lates last night, and forgot to post this before bed. It's a single part question, but there is a bonus point available for working out why this location was chosen for today.  *Click image for a larger version* |

The ELL reopened in March 1998, and Canada Water opened in September 1999.

having just browsed the BBC news archive, is it a link between this location and Northern Ireland?

That roundel doesn't look right. It's almost Overground orange but there aren't any Overground stations with that sort of thing outside. I'd say it's a DLR station, not sure which though, Gallions Reach maybe?

I have no idea where it is, but it isn't Gallions Reach.

No correct entries thus far. Perhaps this version will help.  *Click image for a larger version* |

Was it chosen for April 10th because it is three months after it opened?

Here was me thinking Good Friday, now what could link with it - Kings Cross? but it's not that. St Paul preached Christ and him crucified, but it isn't the station near the Cathedral bearing his name.
I then thought Golgotha sounded as if it ought to be a DLR station name, but there sadly isn't.
Shouldn't work backwards from the day, I guess!

There are times the day is key - but if I always did that you'd all get it instantly!
