Since the inauguration of its first line in 1900, the Paris Metro has occupied a place in the city's culture, history and mythology.

Philip Sweeney travels the Metro to explore the city's love affair with the underground past and present.

More so than any other culture, films, novels and poetry have all drawn on the Metro for literal and symbolic settings.

Producer: Sara Davies

First broadcast on 蜜芽传媒 Radio 4 in May 2000.
