Misleading title - We were very disappointed with this tour (had previously done the Jack The Ripper) The guide was very rude to passers by, which made us feel uncomfortable. Very little actual content (read from a piece of paper), mostly concentrated on where and who she had worked with in her youth. If you are not interested in the club scene of the 60/70’s, in particular where the guide worked and lived, I wouldn’t bother. Fish and chips were not an option
