Although we in Blighty refer to Australia and New Zealand as "The Antipodes" in reality London's antipodal point is in the South Pacific to the south-east of New Zealand. (See Link 1)
The distance to this antipodal point would be half the circumference of the Earth (which averages at 40,041km, its fatter at the equator than round the poles) and is therefore approximately 20020.5 kilometres. (See Link 2)

there is no one furthest place from london because you can go around the world infinite times (or until u get bored or run out of money) and you allso dont have to take a direct path. therefore the distance is unlimited miles and reference is any where you like.
