Think of what will be appropriate for the company. In some cases, one could physically go to the company and observe what other employees are wearing. Doing this a week before could allow time to buy clothes needed for the interview.

Physicall go to the company and see how long it took to get there or if there are other routes that can be taken, this will ensure that there is no lateness. Or go on TFL and it will plan the journey and how long it will take and alternative routes. Therefore you will know what time to leave and wake up.

Be sure to speak clearly, slowly and with confidence for the employer to understand and be able to convince them that you are right for them.
Be calm and relaxed and not discombobulated. Try not to fiddle about as this can read off to the employer/s as someone who is not organised and confident.
Make eye contact with the employer/s and dont look around everywhere or on the floor. Show confidence and assure employer/s that you are right the job at hand.
Make sure all phones and gadgets are turned off to prevent any interruptions during the interview.
