A 40-year-old "mind the gap" recording once heard across the Tube is returning to one station - so the widow of the actor behind it can hear his voice.

Oswald Laurence's announcement used to be heard all over London, but it was phased out until only Embankment used it. Finally it disappeared there too.

Only slightly related, but a friend from work did an event for International women's day in the tube, on the Victoria line and made it to the front page of the Guardian.
