  • "Mind the Gap" is the remarkable story of Margaret McCollum, the woman who waits every day to hear her husband’s voice at the tube station.
    Oswald Laurence first recorded the 'Mind the Gap' announcement in the 1950’s, and it has been running on the London Underground for years. His wife came to listen to his voice every day after his death, until lastly the tape was replaced.
    Eventually, Transport for London sent Margaret a tape with her husband's voice.
    A Regent's University Production.

    My eyes filled with tears! What a touching story! I know the feeling. I lost the woman who was to be my wife in 1989 to a drunk driver. I only wish that I had a recording of her voice. At least I have a picture of her that I look at every day.

    Oswald is now the permanent voice at Embankment . TFL done this for his wife after talking to her and made a copy for her to listen at home.

      yiyodder Ah that’s great to hear! I knew she received a tape, as is seen in the end of the film, but I wasn’t aware that they reinstated his voice at Embankment.

    "It is not death most people are afraid of.
    It is getting to the end of life, only to realize that you never truly lived.
    You know I learned a fact about airplanes the other day. This was - this was so surprising to see, I was talking to a pilot and he told me that many of his passengers think planes are dangerous to fly in. But he said actually, it is a lot more dangerous for a plane to stay on the ground. I say what? Like how does that sound what he said, he said because on the ground. The plane starts to rust.
    Malfunction and wear, much faster than it ever would if it was in the air. As I walked away I thought, yeah, makes total sense because planes were built to live in the skies. And every person was built to live out the dream they have inside and love."

    In 1983 as a 10 year old, I told my Mum that I "felt sorry for the guy who has to say 'Mind the gap' every time a train pulls in".
    She's never let me forget it.

    This is a really well made film based on a true story.
    The actual station was Embankment and not Ladbroke Grove. You can still hear Oswald Laurence's announcement after it was reinstated by TfL.
    Ladbroke grove has straight platforms but the Northern Line at Embankment is on a very sharp curve where there is a huge gap between the intermediate doors and the platform, enough for a slight person or child to fall through.
    There is a BBC article about this.

    The original announcement would still appear to be used at Embankment th-cam.com/video/_WpC2pnaAWI/w-d-xo.html filmed 8th October 2015. This film may have been made in the gap before reinstatement. Still a good film.
