Five nights out

After a busy day sightseeing and shopping, you may fancy some live entertainment, maybe a play. There are many big theatres in the West End, mostly showing musicals. The prices can be eye watering, over £300 per ticket and the programme is extra.

If you want to see one of those and can afford it, go for it. If you are looking for something that won’t break the bank, we have five suggestions. They are a little way out of the centre, represent, we think, good value for money and are fun to visit.

And no, they are not sponsoring us, we don’t get free tickets or payment, these are genuinely five places we like to go to.

Five adult things

If you are travelling with kiddoes, there are plenty of things you can do to keep them occupied.

If you aren’t, there are so many attractions where the little ones are there, misbehaving and screaming and generally spoiling your day. So here are five things where kids should not be welcome.

Visit a cemetery

There many cemeteries in the capital, but Highgate is best known (Archway tube and a walk up the hill).

There’s no reason children cannot attend, but they’d be bored and might possibly damage or disrespect the site, so should be kept away.

Tours are available, and you will see some famous faces, er, graves.

Worth a visit, but book in advance.
