The London Underground can be a miserable place at times but a group of passengers found a way to make it fun when they started singing and dancing in front of a busker.

The crowd even managed to get into a conga line at London’s Leicester Square station on Friday.

They were all rocking to the tune of the Beatles’ Twist and Shout, which was being performed by musician Wilfy Williams.

Both adults and children participated in the conga line in the corridor of the station.


Singer-songwriter Mr Williams later posted a video of the festivities online, writing: ‘Busking at Leicester Square last night and the crowd started doing the conga!



’75k views! Unreal add that to the Facebook video views and there’s 1million people that I’ve managed to put a smile on their face.’

The clip, which was recorded by Helena Whittle, was a huge hit online with many commenting on how much they loved it.

Wes Streeting, MP for Ilford North in London, was one of the people who enjoyed the impromptu dance.

He tweeted: ‘The horror with which I greeted this, admittedly wholesome and joyful content, has made me realise the extent to which I have been institutionalised as a lifelong Londoner.’
