City

London

The only Grand Theft Auto set outside the United States, and the one city the series returned to without rebuilding: London 1969 and London 1961 are played on the same map, north and south of the Thames, with the two expansions separated by eight years rather than by geography.

Antagonist

Harold Cartwright

One of London's leading criminals and the man the Crisp brothers want gone. He claims to be frightened of nothing, which the expansions treat as an invitation rather than a warning.
