(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE) MATTHEW CHANCE, CNN CORRESPONDENT (voice-over): He could be a living link to the London bombings. The investigation has been moving apace with new developments by the hour. Four of the suspected bombers have now been identified. More than 50 Londoners lost their lives in those explosions. Behind me, there's a long line of people this day waiting to sign a condolence book, waiting to walk through and leave flowers at a makeshift shrine memorial, if you will, to the victims of that blast. But it has also been a week that has seen Londoners come together. It has been a week of tears, a week of terror, and at some times, turmoil.
