And are before the time of the speech,he stopped a taxi in the street and asked the driver to take him to the BBC. But the taxi driver who did not recognize him said he could't take him anywhere just then because he wanted to go back to his home at the other end of London to hear Churchill make a speech on the radio. Churchill was so pleased when he heard this answer that he gave the man a pound which was worth quite a lot in those days. "All right. Get in." Said the driver happily,opening the door of the taxi.
