This view always reminded me of the drive from Sheremtyevo Airport in Moscow. But it's in London. The towers in the distance are popular with the local Russian and Ukranian communities, because they feel like home. For the two viewers of BBC3 out there, this is where they shot much of "Little Britain". But you're more likely to hear Russian spoken on the street.
