    Well if you remember in the original "V" series they were also storing food aswell. So, maybe they were hoping to harvest the entire human race aswell as the water therefore starting with every major city on the planet
    And i think you will find that London is or would be a prime locationWhy would you think London wouldn't be a prime location ?
    Victims..arent we all.

      And psychological.
      Population numbers aside, people know the name "London". Seeing a big alien ship there, along with other major cities, only adds to the feeling of claustrophobia.
      Prime or not, these ships were designed to be mobile and to store great quantities of food. Compared to outer space, a ship over London that would be redirected to, say, Hong Kong, would be a walk from the fridge to the stove to them.
      A missed opportunity might have been an episode of another ship still in transit from the home planet and discussing the wait time involved to get to Earth, then finding means to get the audience to hate the aggressors even more

          During the visitor's arrival Daniel Berstein turns to the tv and says, 'look, t's London'. It was also stated clearly on more than one occasion that 50 ships arrived FYI

            London is a Capital City and one of the bigger cities on the planet. It would fit their world wide lie of for them to park a Mother Ship there. That lie being establishing relationships with world leaders to get their support/permission to manufacture a (fake) chemical in order to save their home planet.
            I HATE the phrase "torture porn". What happened to good old fashion "SNUFF FILM"?

                  i live in london. it is one of the major capital cities in the world with a high population. there is also a ready made water source (the river thames) running through it. it is ideal.

                        There are 9 million humans there and a very big river. Everything they wanted.

                          Actually I wonder how he would deal with the visitors?

                            Speaking of Dr. Who, wonder how the Daleks would get along their competitors? 😉
                            I imagine the mother ship went to London for the same reason most of us tourists like to go.friendly people, great sites, and a chance to perhaps see the Royal family 🙂

                              Which leads me to a funny thought.
                              What if the royals were actually shape changing lizards..It'd be like visiting the rellatives?

                                There were 50 of these ships and well it wasnt just fresh water they were after, and an Island nation is surrounded by water 😛
                                They were here for all of us, every living thing and all of the planet's water. London is as good as any place if you ask me.

                                    Do you think the London-based Visitors had bad teeth, a la Austin Powers, so they'd fit in?

                                      This film does have similarities with 'The Dalek Invasion Of Earth',and there must of been resistance groups in London or the UK,not just Los Angeles!
