7/7 BBC 2 Documentary last night 13:24 - Jul 3 with 610 views | Charlie1 | Did anyone see this? Harrowing. Very well filmed / put together. Real tear jerker and some horrendous recounts. Only 7 years ago..... Sends shivers down the spine. If it's on iPlayer, check it out but it will jolt the system. | |

7/7 BBC 2 Documentary last night on 13:32 - Jul 3 with 596 views | Snipper | I just watched it via Sky + Dave. Unbelievable that it's seven years ago. My missus used to work with the girl Martine who lost both legs in the Aldgate bomb. Very sad and very moving programme. Heart wrenching listening to the interviews with family members. | | | |

How she (and all of them) spoke about it was both incredible and humbling. I never realised impact outside of the UK ie the Turkish woman. | |

The driver of the Piccadilly line train has always refused interviews for news & documentary programmes. He never drove again. | | | |

What a contrast in emotions so soon. How any action like that be done in the name of a religion defies belief. It was bad during the IRA times,but at least they normally gave some sort of warning. | | | |

amidst all the chaos of the horrors of that day..somehow london coped..yes phone lines went down, buses and tubes stopped...but we coped. many tube staff that day, on duty but not involved in "incidents" were never debriefed , comms were poor in that THEN we were not allowed personal radios and it took a while to know what was going on. i hope all the emergency services have learnt, as well as the public...by that i mean...on that day when i was evacuating the station i work, most verbally abused me and were angry, with little info all i could say "is when you get home and see tv, maybe you'll think again"...cos by then 3 persons had come forward saying they've had calls from home about bombs all over london. when you see that bus blown apart, it's incredible to think anyone got off/out alive...but they did. | | | |

Luke, I had similar at work. Some bloke abused me for telling him 'the advice is not to attempt to travel into central London unless you are a soldier or a member of the emergency services as London has come to a standstill'. He then told me he had a very important job as a chef for Pizza Hut in Leicester Square. You couldn't make it up. | | | |
