Why bother, go to Waterloo then Bakerloo/Northern line (to taste) and then
Central Line to White City which is right opposite TV Centre. *Shepherds
Bush
is right the other end of Shepherds Bush Green and, frankly, I wouldn't
fancy
walking back there from TVC after dark.

It's counter intuitive but how about Waterloo, Bakerloo or Jubilee to Baker
St then Hammersmith and City to the new station that I can't remember the
name of?

Google

Wood Lane, that's the one.

I didn't know they had built a new station... six months not working
in London and it seems I'm out of touch already.

Thanks for all the more or less convoluted ways of getting there by
tube, but Fleet-CJn-Shepherds Bush has the benefit of being only one
change and fairly direct. And as I am meeting friends at 5.45 the WLL
from CJn should have the benefit of being relatively quiet. The walk
should be no more than a mile, via major roads I don't see why that
should be a problem.

Besides I don't think I've ever been north of Olympia on the WLL.

I was trying to save the cost of a travelcard - but without the Super
Off Peak option it isn't worth it. But often, if I'm only likely to
be catching one tube, or using the bus, I go for London Stations
ticket + use of Oyster.
