A family waited in the cold for four hours to see London’s New Year’s Eve fireworks – only to discover their view was completely obstructed by tall buildings. Fahim Hanif, 21, and his relatives arrived four hours early to secure a prime spot on London’s Southwark Bridge to watch the city’s iconic firework display. But Fahim and his family were left disappointed when they couldn’t see a single firework. The dazzling display was blocked by tall buildings near the London Eye, where the fireworks were launched from.
