Rainbow lights up Trafalgar Square to celebrate launch of ‘Cucumber’

By Will Stroude

With just one day to go until the launch of Russell T Davies’ CucumberBanana and Tofu, Trafalgar Square has been lit up by a rainbow to mark the hotly-anticipated trio of shows.

The 30 metre-high rainbow installation created by Greyworld was commissioned by Channel 4 to celebrate the launch of the new shows tomorrow night (January 22), and after beaming round the London landmark yesterday, you’ll have one more chance to see it tonight between 5.30 and 8.30pm.
