There's a woman on the platform, and she pulled her pants down.

She just went to the toilet on the platform.

I was expecting it to be like a whole control panel right across the front, but you have everything you need over there.

So how long have you been a train operator?

What do you actually train and what's involved?

We need to know our stop inside out, stopping the train.

We fix things, we fault find, we investigate and get London moving again.

It's really important that we stop at the right marks.

Just at the end of the platform, there are a few chevrons.

So what I'm trying to do now is just slow down enough to line up with it.

If it's a couple of metres out, it won't open.

CCTV's a little bit dark, so I just want to check that the platform's clear before I close my doors.

Mind the closing doors, this train is ready to depart.

Do you think I could have a go at doing an announcement?

This is definitely living up to as cool as I thought it was going to be.

So are there any rivalries between the different lines?

The Metropolitan line, for example, they have gorgeous trains.

So sometimes they feel a little bit smug when they go past us.

We're quite a classy bunch, you know, the Jubilee, so no rivalry here.

Have you ever seen anything funny on the CCTV that you've really laughed at?

There was a woman on the platform and she pulled her pants down.

That's the kind of thing that you see on the night tube.

The next station is Stratford, where this train will be terminating.

I'd like to wish you all a very safe and pleasant onward journey, and I hope you enjoy the rest of your day.
