Iconic Banksy image painted over
London transport workers have painted over an iconic mural by "guerrilla artist" Banksy estimated to be worth more than Ј300,000.

The image depicted a scene from Quentin Tarantino's Pulp Fiction, with Samuel L Jackson and John Travolta clutching bananas instead of guns.
