I am retired and know (central) London pretty well having lived in Gower Street in my student days - so it is a matter of eliminating options and locations. While asking questions and going through the theatre district I was talking to some mates in the US on my amateur radio station and checking the POTN site every five or ten minutes.

It's the same actually Greenwich Mean Time is the old name for the Coordinated Universal Time of today. There is a funny story about that: wikipedia wrote: Coordinated Universal Time is abbreviated UTC. The International Telecommunication Union wanted Coordinated Universal Time to have a single abbreviation for all languages. English speakers and French speakers each wanted the initials of their respective language's terms to be used internationally: "CUT" for "coordinated universal time" and "TUC" for "temps universel coordonné". This resulted in the final compromise of using "UTC".[5] My name is Henk. and I believe "It is all in the eye of the beholder....."
