Less than a mile awaySine 1947, the people of Norway have given a Christmas tree to London each year, and on Thursday night marks the end of the journey to Trafalgar Squre for this year's tree, as its lights will be switched on. Go along at 6pm to see the switch-on (though the earlier the better for a good view). (Nearest station: Charing Cross)
