Where can I buy cheap lobster in London?

May I ask this question?

I would like to buy fresh or frozen lobster. Is Billingsgate market the best option, or is there any other venue which may offer a better deal?

Thank you

Can't comment on the local specific options, but if you have a lidl, they sometimes stock frozen ones for c. £5

I feel cruel if i go to buy a fresh lobster.
You know the way they're there in a tank outside the fishmonger. And they seem to be looking at you and saying ...... 'No don't choose me'.
They must know you're planning to put them in boiling water.

Once defrosted the Lidl ones are scrawny and a bit rubbish IMO. If you want nice meaty ones then I guess Billingsgate is the way to go.

I have been told that the lidl lobsters are very small and not really worth it.
