I made London into an island for a number of reasons. |
| [00:04.76] |
Britain is an island. It's a collection of islands. |
| [00:11.44] |
It informs our national psyche. |
| [00:17.60] |
It's a wry joke on, on London's self-importance. |
| [00:23.65] |
The Isle of Woking, dormitory island town. |
| [00:29.54] |
It's an image of, of both order and chaos, |
| [00:33.19] |
and, at times, an image of where the order descends into chaos, |
| [00:43.25] |
making it, I was trying to say how bewildering it can be, |
| [00:47.56] |
sometimes, to live in the place. |
| [00:51.83] |
The infinite amounts of stories and lives and, |
| [00:56.40] |
and histories that, you know, ten million people in a city experience. |
