If I wanted to take my family on a week-long trip to London during Easter, how much of the city would be shut down? Are the shops closed and so on?

I know Good Friday is a bank holiday, but I don’t know what exactly it means beyond, I suppose, the banks being closed? 😁

    I’ve just been reading up on this. It’s a law from 1994 and as I understand it; these laws were introduced to protect smaller family retailers and to help people attend church. If so, this feels like an incredible outdated and archaic law, no?
