Bam bam bam bam bam - The trumpet
- Tequila - What?
- Tequila He doesn't say tequila.
He does.
He definitely does not say tequila.
He says tequila.
He 100% does not say tequila.
Yeah you're right, he doesn't say tequila.
Good afternoon.
Hello.
It is so sunny.
Not really sunny.
Well it's sunny for London.
We are on our way to the London Eye or the Coca Cola London Eye.
Or London's Eye as I like to call it.
Have you ever been on it?
I have not but I have seen it.
He has not.
We are ever so slightly on the lost side.
Andres is leading the way semi-unsuccessfully.
Don't hate the player hate the game.
Exactly.
Don't hate the player hate the game.
Don't give me my own advice.
We're on Southbank and it is so busy, I don't know if you can see all the people.
Lots of buskers as well which is fun to watch.
Somebody thought that we could just walk into the London Eye.
I thought if we pre-bought our tickets, we could just walk in.
Apparently not.
It's a 40 minute wait from here.
I booked in a tour at the National Theatre after this which means we might be late for that
So...I might see if I can call and rebook.
I'm sorry.
It's okay.
I did something kind of stupid.
So I bought tickets for us to do the National Theatre tour.
No luck.
I bought it for the wrong one.
I bought it for Stratford.
Which is a different city altogether.
Sorry.
We all forgive you.
We just finished the London Eye.
What did you think?
It's a bit of a tourist trap I think.
I thought it was a super tourist trap.
I just don't like that kind of thing.
I don't like heights.
We're in tourist central right now.
Yeah.
I think this is the most touristy part of London.
Maybe outside of Leicester Square.
No, this is pretty touristy.
More touristy than Leicester Square you reckon?
I think...I reckon.
Y'reckon?
I reckon.
Y'reckon?
I reckon.
So I thought today we'd try something a little bit different and answer the most commonly
asked questions on Google.
So Andres is going to help a sister out and find questions about the London Eye.
Is the London Eye worth it?
Nah.
I would say no.
Is the London Eye scary?
I didn't think it was scary but I don't know if you thought it was scary.
If you're afraid of heights, then yes.
Is the London Eye open?
It looks pretty open although the line is really long.
So...even if you buy your ticket in advance, get here an hour early.
Is the London Eye safe?
You'd hope so!
That's what you're actually thinking if you're afraid of heights.
It felt pretty sturdy.
What if there's, like, a bizarre gust of wind?
I mean, I don't think wind is going to effect it.
And now what are we doing?
Well we have tickets to other London attractions like the Aquarium and Shrek.
So we're going to see what has the smallest line.
So all of the attractions have long lines except for Shrek's Adventure so I think we're going
to give that a go.
For the record, I think Shrek's Adventure is going to be underrated.
I think so too.
I think it could be fantastic.
There aren't a lot of people in it, though.
I know that's why I think it's underrated.
I have no idea what to expect from this.
Not gonna lie.
So far it's been a bit weird.
Apparently no pictures.
We just finished the tour now we're in this, like, photo area.
Madagascar.
We met Shrek.
And Shrek's biggest fan, apparently.
This is it.
Well, that was fun.
My big disappointment is that we took the best pictures.
When you go in they make you take pictures.
And ours were so good.
But it was £30 to get them in the end.
There was Lizzie going like this.
It was so good.
Should I do it again?
You did a really great one.
I was looking at her like...
That was the best picture.
Overall, it was interesting.
If you have kids it's a lot better, obviously.
Definitely worth it if you've got kids.
If you don't have kids, then it was like...I'm glad we did it, I preferred it to the London
Eye actually.
The actors were pretty good.
They were really into it.
So basically what it is is you go in and have your own adventure with Shrek.
You're trying to find Shrek.
I don't want to give too much away incase you're thinking of going.
But it was good.
It was good, it was really fun.
We're heading now to a pub to have a drink, and then we're going to go home.
But it's been a really good day except for me accidentally booking the wrong tickets.
So every year in London there's this thing called Underbelly Festival and it just happens
during summer and we're here now.
It's pretty busy.
So now we're going to do the Shrek's Adventure Google auto fill answer questions.
That didn't make any sense but hopefully you know what I mean.
Is Shrek's Adventure for adults?
Adults with babies?
Yes.
For kids?
Yes.
It's for kids more.
The kids thought it was magical.
Would I say it's 100% for adults?
No.
And actually if you want to do something that's more adult there's probably better things
to do.
But it's nice, like if you're into Shrek and you just want a fun day out, it's nice.
Having said that, the person that was in front of us, she was like 25, and she was like,
"I'm the number 1 Shrek fan" and she rushed to Shrek and gave him a hug.
So yes and no.
Is Shrek's Adventure included in Merlin's pass?
I don't know.
I think so.
But you could probably Google that.
Is Shrek's Adventure good for adults?
Same question as number 1.
Is Shrek's Adventure scary?
At one point I did scream.
Twice!
Things kind of jump out at you but I don't think it's on purpose.
I think I'm just a naturally jumpy person so I wouldn't say it's scary.
I think it's fine for kids of all ages.
Is Shrek's Adventure a Merlin Attraction?
Is it? Are you sure?
Yup.
Alright, well there you go.
It's Shrekcellent!
Shreksy?
Shrektastic.
By the way, we didn't come up with that, that's in the attraction that they said all the time.
I have to say, the actors were very good but they were a bit over the top sometimes.
They have to be.
There you go.
Answers to all of Google's questions.
I feel like we contributed to the world now.
Positively.
Right now we're trying to go to one of our favourite pubs called Gordon's Wine Bar.
Which is London's oldest wine bar.
New plan.
They were completely full.
Unsurprisingly.
It's very hard to find a table in there.
Yeah so we're going to go home, get some cheese, some wine.
UPDATE.
New new plan.
We're going to St. James's Park which is another thing on TimeOut London's list.
Because we're feeling in the mood to tick another thing off the list.
And we're quite close by.
You haven't seen the last of us today.
You've not seen the last of us today.
We're in the household cavalry or the horseguard.
The cavalry headquarters and you can see it's a big open space where they do a lot of parades
and I guess there was an event here.
I didn't know they did these.
Oh absolutely.
And that's St. James's Park over there.
- And past that is Buckingham Palace. - Let's go.
This park is so peaceful.
It's a really nice park.
What's the one in Nottinghill that's also really nice?
Holland Park.
It's on the list.
The Kyoto Gardens, I haven't seen the Kyoto Gardens so I didn't go.
I did.
You went!?
Yeah with Pino.
You went without me?
We were trying to find you.
Excuses.
I never do anything without you.
Aww....
Na nah!
That is a strong gate.
It's like, "look at me I'm a gate."
You were just a floating head again.
You have to stop being a floating head.
We thought where better place to do our new Google project about St. James's Park than
right in front of Buckingham Palace?
Is St. James's Park open?
Yes.
Is St. James's Park tube open today?
Dunno.
Probably.
Probably.
Unless there's some kind of problem.
God forbid.
Is St. James's Park station open today?
Actually I've never been to St. James's Park station.
That's probably one station I've never actually been to.
Oh really? Fascinating.
Is St. James's Park safe at night?
Well, I would say that no parks are really safe at night.
I think by the time it gets dark, you should probably try not to be in a park.
Is Buckingham Palace haunted?
Probably.
Is Buckingham Palace open?
Can you go inside?
Yeah I think there are tours.
We should do a tour one day.
It's not on the list.
Is Buckingham Palace near Big Ben?
Yeah, it's pretty close.
Is Buckingham Palace in Central London?
Definitely.
Is Buckingham Palace free?
It's free for the Queen.
I don't know but I'm almost certain that it's not.
But yeah, as Andres said, for the Queen it's definitely free.
Alright, shall we actually head home now?
Yeah.
We're on our way home.
So I'm going to end this now.
