In this first episode, recorded Saturday 14th April 2007, the window opens in Trafalgar Square looking down from the outside foyer of the National Portrait Gallery across the square to the fountains and foot of Nelson's Column.
After a close-up of one of the fountains, the camera moves to the far side of Trafalgar Square looking back towards the National Portrait Gallery building.
The next scene is that of Horse Guards on ceremonial duty in Whitehall. The first Guard is on horseback, and the next shot shows a standing Guard in front of the entrance to Horseguards Parade. Behind him is another Guard on horseback, mirroring the first on either side of the entrance.
The camera now arrives in Parliament Square just in time to catch Big Ben chiming. Notice, in the bottom right corner of the picture, a row of tents marking the location of the current anti-war protest across the road from the Palace of Westminster (Houses of Parliament).
Next, the camera is located in New Palace Yard, in the far corner from the Palace of Westminster. On the left side of the picture is Westminster Abbey. The next shot has a close-up of the statue of Richard I (Richard the Lionheart, King of England from 1189 to 1199.
Our final scenes in this episode are of the The British Airways London Eye, also known as the Millennium Wheel, which opened in 1999. This observation wheel carries 40 "pod" each containing up to 25 passengers on a 30-minute journey full-circle. It stands 135 metres (443 feet) high on the western end of Jubilee Gardens, on the South Bank of the River Thames. The scenes also take in County Hall, the former Greater London Council (GLC) building now home to the London Aquariam, galleries, and two hotels.
