Anyone know what happened with the project? I could not find anything more recent.

The BBC has collected these fascinating old programmes about London, many of them several decades old. I just watched Clive James's 1991 programme comparing the London of today (ie 1991) with the early 1960s, when he first arrived...

Just saw this on the fictional architecture thread. Notice three skyscrapers with domes that look rather like St Paul's.
