Love in London: Adventurous first-date 'best I've ever had'

London is a city of nine million people, and love blooms all across the capital.

Every week Salma El-Wardany speaks to a different London couple about their love story. How they met, where, when, and what it all means to them - and we'll also hear some music they've chosen that's been important to their relationship.

Pete & Akila’s story very nearly didn’t happen, but a strange twist of fate at a wake laid to rest any doubt in Akila’s mind about Pete.

They had an instant attraction during an epic, adventurous, 'four-in-one' first-date that traversed London. They're now bonded by a future marriage and a business too.
