London’s Strangest Tales is your alternative guide to the capital, unraveling some of London’s best kept secrets and packed with amazing things you didn't know about the city - such as the fact that it’s still forbidden to run, carry an umbrella or whistle in Burlington Arcade or why, for centuries, many Londoners chose to go to prison to get married! From the medieval human lavatory to the monarch who showed her breasts to a visiting ambassador, London’s Strangest Tales is a unique collection of extraordinary stories dating back more than a thousand years.
