At Underground Station.
He watched as the Browns fed their tickets into a slot in the barrier. However, being on the short side, he didn't see them take it out again from the slot on top. He posted his own ticket and was about to walk through when the gates clapped shut and sent him flying backward. A stern-looking ticket inspector opened the barrier and handed him back his ticket.
"Thank you, Officer", said Paddington.
He was so busy raising his hat that by the time he reached the barrier, it had snapped shut again, trapping him by his nose.
"Erb...? Excuse be, Obbicer?" he called.

I think he was just slow. The underground barriers are quite quick.
The second time he was busy thanking the inspector.

The rush hour is best avoided the first few times.
That's between about 07:00 and 09:00 around the City. So, from Docklands in the East to Westminster in the West and around the big overground stations (Euston, Kings Cross, Victoria, London Bridge, Waterloo, etc.). In the afternoon it's between about 16:00 and 18:00.
Try it out during the day when it's quiet first. :)
