Some rough calc's (very rough)

Lets suppose

London has a radius of 18 3/4 Km

This means that it is takes up an area of 3325sq Km

Each Consume node can cover 39sq Km

This means that you need in theory 84 nodes to cover the whole area of
London.

We know that the propagation is not in a square which is a shame and that
people are not going to live exactly this two K apart so let say 1Km range.

This means that 336 nodes will be required. Which all in all does not seem
that horrendous of a figure. Even at a range of 500metres they still only
need 1330 nodes for the whole of London.

My maths is more than likely very wrong but if someone would be so kind as
to go over it we could have a rough guess of how many would be required.
