Mind the Gap Tube announcement returns after wife’s plea

Margaret McCollum and Oswald Laurence were married for 15 years
A 40-year-old “mind the gap” recording once heard across the Tube is returning to one station – so the widow of the actor behind it can hear his voice.

Oswald Laurence’s voice was used on the northbound Northern Line but was phased out until only Embankment used it.

Dr Margaret McCollum said she often uses the station and was devastated when “he wasn’t there” in November.

If you have a chance, watch the little minute and a half report.

It’s precious.

Thanks to Joan of Argghh!
