I have a picture of the station name, I think.

Jerry Springer's birthplace

I have doubts about Jerry Springer being born in East Finchley station. The article on Jerry Springer cites this source claiming that his mother was using the station as an air raid shelter. Being above ground, East Finchley does not seem ideal as a shelter. Mtford 00:26, 20 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I also wish to question the birthplace of Jerry Springer, as recent press articles have stated that the only children to be born on London Underground are as follows:

A 32-year-old woman has given birth to what is believed to be the first baby boy to be born on the London Underground.
Michelle Jenkins, of Barking, went into labour while travelling on the Jubilee Line on Tuesday.
.... [snip] ...
Last December, Julia Kowalska became the second person to give birth on the underground. Baby Jennifer was born at 2135 on 19 December.
TfL said the only other recorded birth on the underground was in 1924 when Marie Cordery was born at Elephant & Castle.
