What's the biggest innovation of the last 25 years on public transport in London? Is it the Elizabeth line, the contactless revolution, the Overground line naming, electric buses, new trains that are incoming on the Piccadilly line and DLR - or something else? What about the Night Tube? Tim Dunn dives headfirst into the spectacular world of TfL innovation, from deep in the Elizabeth line tunnels and new stations, to a secret room underneath Tottenham Court Road tube station. DJ and Radio 1 presenter Jaguar sits down with Tim for a chat about another major TfL innovation: The Night Tube - how it's changed London's nightlife, her own life, and made things better. Tim also meets the most qualified person in London to talk about contactless technology: Chief Technology Officer of Transport for London Shashi Verma, to discover a bit more about the magic of that system and how on earth it all works. _________________________ Mind the Gap is the Official podcast of Tfl, created by TfL _________________________ A special thanks to the TfL25 corporate sponsors of this special edition podcast, they are: A.J Wells, Alstom, Arriva, First Bus, Go Ahead London, Keolis Amey Docklands, Links Signs, Metroline, Siemens, Stagecoach, Stewart Signs and Transport UK
The biggest events in London's recent history have all had TfL at their centre, everything from the 2012 Olympics and Paralympics, to the 7/7 attacks, and regular planned events like Notting Hill Carnival and Pride - and Tim Dunn is on a whirlwind transport mission to meet four key personalities who were, as they say, in the room where it happened. Legendary singer Heather Small sits down with a very starstruck Tim to chat about her role in London 2012 (including her famous rendition of her song 'Proud', as well as her passion for London and how she'll never leave the neighbourhood where she was born. Tim also speaks with gold medal winning Olympian Pete Reed, one of the heroes of the London games, to hear about his memories of that glorious summer. Pete suffered a spinal stroke in 2019, which means he now uses a wheelchair. He campaigns for better accessibility, and speaks about the importance of better provision on public transport, and the challenges that remain, as well as a unique traffic light project he worked on with TfL. Tim also speaks with TfL's Mark Evers, the former Director of Games Transport in the leadup to the Olympics and Paralympics, before heading to meet the one-and-only Joan Saunders-Reece, Emergency Planning Manager and the first female train operator on the Victoria line, to hear more about her incredible career and involvement in major London events - including the response and experience of the London bombings on 7/7. _________________________ Mind the Gap is the Official Podcast of TfL, created by TfL. _________________________ In her interview, Heather Small mentions that she is currently on tour, and more information can be found via her social media at https://www.instagram.com/heathersmallmpeople/ _________________________ A special thanks to the TfL25 corporate sponsors of this special edition podcast, they are: A.J Wells, Alstom, Arriva, First Bus, Go Ahead London, Keolis Amey Docklands, Links Signs, Metroline, Siemens, Stagecoach, Stewart Signs and Transport UK

Ed Sheeran BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Ed Sheeran has been everywhere this week and not just on stage. The Mathematics Tour, his juggernaut that rolled through stadiums for over three years, wrapped with fanfare in Düsseldorf, Germany on September 6, drawing nearly 200000 fans across a three-night finale. Speaking from the stage in Düsseldorf, Sheeran grew emotional thanking everyone for making what he called a life-changing tour possible, sharing that since its conception in 2019, the show faced pandemic delays but ultimately played to 10 million people over four years. IQ Magazine hails the scale of the feat, framing it not only as a personal milestone but as a definitive statement about Sheeran's enduring fan connection and stamina as a global pop act. But he's barely catching his breath. Sheeran is set for a much-anticipated live Tiny Desk concert on NPR Music's YouTube channel at noon Eastern this Friday, September 12, promising intimate performances from his new album Play, which drops the very same day. NPR Music, reflecting on Sheeran's massively viewed 2021 home Tiny Desk set, is already teasing new surprises for this upcoming appearance. For superfans hungry for more, TikTok is also streaming an exclusive Play album launch concert live from New York on September 13, making Sheeran's album release not just musical, but a multiplatform digital event that's likely to echo far beyond a standard pop album cycle. Meanwhile the business column inches have been buzzing about Sheeran's next era. Multiple outlets including ABC News and the NZ Herald confirm Sheeran's major life shift — he's relocating his wife Cherry Seaborn and their daughters Lyra and Jupiter from his Suffolk estate to the United States, citing long-term touring commitments in America and referencing his longstanding affection for Nashville. The move is raising eyebrows and generating plenty of speculation online, especially among those close to the UK music scene, who wonder how this stateside base might influence his rumored interest in pursuing more country-influenced songwriting. His business calendar is filling quickly, with upcoming tour stops set for Las Vegas, Newark, and beyond, culminating with the newly announced Loop Tour, a globe-spanning series of shows kicking off in Paris this December and covering Europe, New Zealand, and Australia over spring 2026. Not to be outdone by the music, Sheeran also popped up in a splashy Tokyo campaign with the Ōedo Metro Line this week, cross-promoting both his brand and public transport — a quirky but very Sheeran touch. On social media, clips of his heartfelt speeches from the Düsseldorf finale are racking up views and fan testimonials. Headlines from the past few days consistently point to Sheeran as a master of reinvention, wrapping one chapter with a world-beating tour just as he starts another, this time as a transatlantic transplant set to conquer new markets and audiences. No confirmed controversies or major negative reports have bubbled up this week. If there is a “long-term biographical significance” to single out, it's that these days may mark Sheeran's true bridge into becoming a genuinely international superstar in both residence and reach.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Jaspal Singh famously said: “Anyone can drive a bus, but not everyone can be a bus driver.” The ex UK CEO of ComfortDelGro is highly attune to the mindset that gets the country moving; after all ComfortDelGro's London subsidiary, Metroline, carries 1million people a day. Jaspal is back in his homeland of Singapore, where he previously spent 27 years as a government advisor. Jaspal is full of quirky wisdom and shares his philosophy on the world of work. On the subject of companies currently being forced into digital maturity due to the crisis, he says “2021 will actually be more like 2030.” His vision for the Frontline of the Future is one where we get back to basics: honour, respect, and belonging. This sense of belonging, or, Maslows Third Hiararchy of Needs, is a key theme throughout the episode: “it's why we join clubs, why we have families.” So how will we let employees know they belong when they no longer come into an office? In Jaspal's opinion, it's all about communication: speaking to each employee as if you were doing so one-on-one, reassuring them, letting them know their value. He assures Peter Durkin that ‘a culture of caring' is the only way forward. For this and much more, check out Frontline of the Future, the best Frontline Worker Podcast.
