Underground, Overground
Wombling free. Well they couldn't charge for the Wombles, could they? I can't ever see the latest addition to the transport armoury without thinking of the Wombles. It's a sad place to be.

Why sad?
The wombles weren't even part of my youth, just a nasty earworm.
Drat! You've got me humming the tune now! Will never forget them on Top of the Pops!
At Whitechapel, outside the station, there are signs
UNDERGROUND
OVERGROUND
reflecting the fact that the Underground really is above the Overground here. It is almost impossible to pass it and avoid the earworm.
