Question of the week: Do you have a favourite tube line, and why? "The Jubilee. Not just because it has wheel-chair access from Westminster and points east, and not just because it diagonals and then horizontals so exquisitely through all manner of Londons -- but because of the play on interior and exterior architecture. Thus, descending from Parliament Square through the zig-zaggity architecture of the Westminster station reminds me of Piranesi's drawings of Rome's catacombs. Thus, ascending through the straight steep diagonal architecture of Canary Wharf evocatively be-buzzes the excitement of rising to the plaza, surrounded by striking buildings with their variegated fenestration..."- Dr Holt
