I know how he did the last trick *SPOILERS*


He chose a cabbie because they would all have come on the same bus, which would have gone via the route he marked. Being a cabbie, the guy subconciously recognised the route taken, and this put it into his mind. This was reinforced when the pyro went off - it makes you think of places bombs have gone off, and after Downing Street, Shepherd's Bush is the next place you would think of because it is known for a car bomb incident a few years ago. And the value of the ride could be calculated from standard taxi fares.


I'm anespeptic, frasmotic, even compunctuous to have caused you such pericumbobulations...
