FORBIDDEN.LONDON is a London guide, blog and web directory featuring information about bars, restaurants, museums, blue plaques and shops in central London. Originally Forbidden London, as it was then known, was a public relations company. It was based at 91 Jermyn Street in the London district of St James's between 2008 and 2012 when it was part owned by David West. The company promoted London nightlife, particularly by utilising the Internet to attract guests to events at leading nightclubs in Soho and Mayfair. Rivals included London Parties, operated by Nick House - future partner in Mahiki; and Met Parties. The original company was notable for staging the first performance[1] of Vivienne Westwood's Active Resistance to Propaganda manifesto at the Bloomsbury Ballroom on Friday 4 December 2009. The performance starred Vivienne Westwood and Michelle Ryan. As the company was based above the nightclub and Russian restaurant at 91 Jermyn Street, both owned by David West, the company was named in online conspiracy theories related to the poisoning of Alexander Litvinenko. This escalated following the unlawful killing of David West although the two incidents were found to be unconnected. In 2010 Forbidden London organised Raef Bjayou's 007 party for UK TV show Party Wars at Amika nightclub in High Street Kensington. Raef came second in the show. In 2011 Forbidden London was nominated for Best Entertainment by Spear's for their Design for Living Awards 2011.[2] In August 2011 Forbidden London announced 1000 job opportunities for young people in London.[3] In April 2012 the website ceased to be available and did not reappear until October 2017 under the new name of FORBIDDEN.LONDON References1. ^{{citation | title = YouTube Forbidden London Present Vivienne Westwood's Active Resistance | url = https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hc4hQ47jbyY | accessdate = 2009-11-26 | location=London | date=26 November 2009}} 2. ^{{cite news | title = Spear's Design for Living Awards 2011 | url = http://www.spearswms.com/dflawards/23402/spears-design-for-living-awards-shortlists-announced.thtml | accessdate = 2011-04-26 | location=London | date = 27 April 2011}} 3. ^{{cite news | title = 1,000 jobs for young entrepreneurs – scarier than Cameron’s gangs? | url = http://www.journalism.co.uk/press-releases/1-000-jobs-for-young-entrepreneurs---scarier-than-cameron--s-gangs-/s66/a545632/ | accessdate = 2011-11-26 | location=London | date=16 August 2011 | work=Journalism.co.uk}} External links
