Why do you have to put THE Globe Theatre instead of just Globe Theatre? Wht not THE London Eye also? Inconsistency. Why not accept Tate for Tate Modern?

And not "The Tower of London". Which isn't even it's proper name...it's actually "Her Majesty's Palace and Fortress".

Yeah, "Gherkin" is not enough, it has to be "THE Gherkin"? That's not right.

I agree that you shouldn't need the 'the' at the beginning. But there are two Tate museums in London.

Pretty sure Big Ben is in St. James' Tower not Elizabeth Tower.

It's actually Anteros rather than Eros in Piccadilly Square.

Albert Hall should be enough surely!

I would say so. People generally call it "the Albert Hall". Tried that first, then added royal.

Can you accept 'nelsons column' without the apostrophe, I was typing for ages and becoming confused, good quiz though!

Jetpunk doesn't look at punctuation when you type in your answer. For whatever reason your answer didn't work, not including the apostrophe was not it.

Weird extra wording needed, not normal everyday speech.

The clue for The Buckingham Palace should nowadays probably say "King" instead of "Queen". Or maybe "monarch" would be the best word.

Queen Camilla's official residence is Buckingham Palace too.

But yes, monarch would be better.

I'm not sure about the "centre of the West End" one. Leicester Square is an important centre in the West End, but I've never heard of anyone claiming it's the centre of the West End before. It's certainly nowhere near its geographical centre. I guessed Marble Arch and Oxford Street before giving up - both of which could also be called centres of the West End.
