Commuters find love on the Tube

Victoria tube
The tunnel of love

Forget 'misery line' – the Northern Line should be dubbed the tunnel of love.

In a result that will no doubt add to its overcrowding, the Tube line has been found to have the sexiest passengers.

More than a third of people thought its combination of 'spiky-haired indie kids' and 'hot city types' gave it the edge over other lines.

But there were major faults reported on the Hammersmith and City line – it had the least attractive passengers.

Tube users spotted an average of four fanciable people every day, the survey found.

Half admitted to having some sort of 'Tube tryst', where they swapped numbers, dated or had sex.

One in 100 even married someone they met on the Underground.

But nine in ten admitted to a 'missed moment' when they did not take things further with a fellow passenger.

For those who did pluck up the courage, among the worst chat-up lines was 'I bet you're getting off at Angel', the survey by Qype found.
