    Unlike the Chinese system which uses numbers, British postcodes consist of both letters and numbers. What do they represent?

    Here are a few examples: N7 6BS. SW12 9SN. W2 5EA. DA4 0BN. BT5 7QR.

    Helen Hu and Feifei Feng speak to Chris Taft, the Curator of the British Postal Museum and Archive.
