Does anybody know whereabouts in Manchester it was that Chappers and Dave were supposed to have visited as part of their world tour?

Its an architectural monstrosity. A complete eyesore to the surrounding landscape. Then again so is Salford to the neighbouring city of Manchester.

I haven't been to Manchester and so haven't seen that building before, but what is the point of that bit that sticks up at the top?

It's probably some sort of gigantic sundial. Maybe people there can't afford watches or something.

I disagree, I like it. I think its the sort of modern thinking we need. If you watched Demolition last night, they were talking about the scottish parliament, I think thats a brilliant building, inside and out.
