But there was nothing to fear as it was just MC Yan, who rocked China by being the first to use Chinese characters in his graffiti, bringing Laser tagging, the new, high-tech future of graffiti, to London. Part of the Red Mansion Foundation's Down......

Photograph of Peter Bonetti at St Pancras station Off on a weekend trip to Paris or, er, Sheffield?
