But Greenwich, just over the river from the blast zone, was the location of a shiny new prestigious university.
We kind of get a clue about Greenwich, as 2053 Hasan says that her son didn't die in the blast but from radiation sickness in the aftermath. And he was in Deptford with the world's shittest evacuator. Who despite knowing that Jawad had been threatened and a man broke into their home, dithered around when Hasan called and told him to get out of London. Though to be fair to him, she had hours in which she could have called him and told him to leave, but even though she'd been told her son would die she took a long, long time to call her dad. When she does eventually get around to it, she told him to go stay with an aunt, when she'd have known that the route there would have skirted a similar radius of the bomb.
As soon as she listened to the record Mannix left her, which detailed exactly how the bombing would kill people, she should have called her dad and said, 'Hey, remember how some crazy people stalked and threatened Jawad. I need you to get him out of the city immediately. Don't stop for anyone as my boss seems to be in on it. And don't try to get through or around the centre. Just go north. Take the train if you don't feel like driving. Go hang out in Cheshunt or something. He'll be safe as long as you leave London, right now.'
And with that, I feel like i've given this all a lot more thought than the writers who just handwaved away how Jawad died when it would have been super easy for Hasan to ensure he didn't.
