I suggest using the embassy review page and looking at London. You'll find lots of recent and helpful reviews.

London is more relaxed than most countries.

Also please fill in your timeline, it helps everyone use the forums.

And if you have question London specific, I suggest asking in the UK regional forum.

I had my interview a couple or so months back. It was very easy - its mainly a lot of sitting around and waiting. The interview itself was only 5 minutes at most, and it was just casual questions like "how did you meet" and "have you met her family, has she met yours?" London is a low fraud location (people in Western Europe generally don't marry for a greencard), so the interview isn't a grilling at all, most London interviews seem to report that after all the waiting it was almost disappointing how short and easy it was.
