Similarly, I sat through "The Battle Of Britain" cringing at the use of Messerchmitts and Heinkels with Merlin engines (Spanish post war variants) and Spitfires with bubble canopies (not introduced into service until 1944). All totally wrong and it ruined it for me. Trouble is, not many others realised or cared and I suspect the same is true for the general audience of Spooks  |

Well at least Charing Cross has a Bakerloo platform! I suppose that is easier than re-routing the Jubilee back to Charing Cross.
Mind you, I guess this proves that the escalators still work....

I noticed that as well! Was nice to see the Charing Cross Jubilee platforms though considering I've never really noticed them before in anything

You can clearly see some Jubilee line diagrams in several shots too

@ Ricewind the escalators have been robbed blind of all the parts and are fixed in position. They are the escalators leading down to the Great Wall of Charing Cross and the other platforms.

Defo Jubbly stock, the hum as it came into the platform is so recognisable!

Ahhh, I stand corrected! Defo Jubbly stock, the hum as it came into the platform is so recognisable! That and the turquoise bits around the doors. I was thinking about this earlier, if they had claimed they were the Northern Line platforms it would have perhaps been more credible with the similarities between 95ts and 96ts. Or would that mean curved platforms and Mind the Gap? |

There is a shot of a curved platform at about 20:40.
Odd also that although the platform is crowded, the train that arrives at it appears to be is completely empty.

I once had that problem watching something online using my mobile broadband on a national express coach in the middle of the night somewhere in somerset or thereabouts... |

Reminds me of Three and Out in a sense. When he's driving the train in the beggining of the film, the controls are on the right side of the cab, and not the left.  |
