""What can you do when you’re bored on the London Underground? Tube swapping of course! The director found swap junkies, brought them out of the anonymity of the Internet and placed them in front of the camera. The ‘tube swappers’ tell us the various reasons for their passion in astounding openness and take us on a journey with them through the underground. A documentary of fine, yet odd, English character. “And if I didn’t know any better, I’d say that someone’s giving us the run around...” (St. James Park station assistant) ""
