In this episode, Fernando invites you on a journey through London's Barbican Centre, the awe-inspiring fortress of culture that rose from the ruins of World War II. We’ll navigate through the Barbican’s concrete jungle, laugh about the maze-like corridors that have bewildered many, and experience a world-class theatre performance.

This is no ordinary day out; it's a personal narrative entwined with the history and art that pulse through this brutalist marvel.

Join us as we traverse from the tarmac of Biggin Hill Airport to the heart of the city's art scene for an unforgettable day out. We’ll take you through the quickest routes and even tease the luxurious option of arriving by helicopter.
