Lucianarchy and power cut
Central and south London has been hit by a widespread power cut which has left transport disrupted and many travellers stranded.
The power was out for about one hour and the Mayor of London Ken Livingstone said about 250,000 were caught in the underground.
London Underground said the power failure had a "serious" impact on the whole of the network, with 60 per cent without power at one time.
Rail services from major stations including Victoria, London Bridge and Waterloo were also affected.
Two hundred and seventy sets of traffic lights in south and central London were not working for about an hour.
A Tube spokesman said: "There has been a National Grid failure which has affected the underground."
He said the failure happened around 6.15pm and there were a number of people stuck underground.

Has anyone noticed any Lucianarchy posts about this yet ? As she/he/it claims to be from London I'd have thought a psychic impression should have been available.
