> a special ticket isn't required. Excellent, I've been trying to figure this out; whether I will be able to just jump on/off using my debit (or Oyster) card as I currently do on the over/underground. Any idea how far

He could have done just that, but the police would have held on to it until they'd finished their investigation and the court case was over. I suppose it's a question of waiting or paying for speedy delivery.
