Iconic London (9)

Paddington Bear is definitely a London icon. I know because when I went to find him in the station I was one of many ‘tourists’ looking out for him. There are various versions of him, this bench was my favourite. Someone was kind enough to take a photo of me with the Paddington bronze statue.

This video clip with our late Queen for her Jubilee is very cute if you have time to look

Great spot and lovely shot!

Lovely seat, nicely captured! He's had a bit of a resurgence in recent years. I thought at the time, that the sketch with the Queen was fab!

Oh isn't that fab - the new film is out in November. That jubilee video was such fun.
