The tube train lurched just at the wrong moment, but Cardinal Nichols graciously forbore an ungainly obeisance. Much has been made of Pope Francis’s regular use of public transport when he was Archbishop of Buenos Aires; it is good to know that Londoners may be just as likely to bump into the Archbishop of Westminster in similar circumstances. We were, inevitably, heading in the same direction and to the same event. I teased His Eminence that in a different age the leader of the Catholics of England and Wales might have approached the Tower of London with some trepidation.
