From telegraph blog:

20.10 The helicopter takes off, heading west from Essex to the capital followed by several identical decoy helicopters. Obama has spent less than 20 minutes on British soil so far.

20.06 Marine One's rotors are whirring, ready to take the Obamas to Winfield House, the official residence of the US ambassador which is set in 12 acres of grounds in Regent's Park. Darling and his wife retreat.

20.03 It's all smiles as Alistair Darling shakes hands with Obama, and their wives Maggie and Michelle exchange greetings. But it's a brief hello and the pair are already heading towards Obama's helicopter. Michelle in a yellow dress and black coat.

What's up anyway - is revolution in the air?

Guess Obama is here.

You should have shot them down. Would have made a great section 58 protest.

He's busy at home, piloting his own.

Yeah, why risk walking to blockbusters in a stabproof vest when you can take the chopper.

No - this was just a decoy convoy, for security reasons Obama went by the Tube.
