Take a breather from the hustle and bustle of life in Trafalgar Square this summer, where you can kick back and relax in one of 100 deckchairs and re-live the classic British summer holiday experience. The Mayor of London is putting on One Magic Summer, a special programme of free weekend entertainment in the world-famous Square, starting this Thursday (20 August). A variety of comedy performances, street theatre and even magic tricks is planned to evoke memories of the great British summer holiday - look out for Bill and Vera and their 'Swervy World' 1950s beach hut, or the non-identical twins' death-defying feats of illusion, accompanied by 80s power ballads.
