Lanterne Rouge Posted June 30, 2019 Report Share Posted June 30, 2019 Just channel flicking and found this just about to start on History (Sky 130). It`s presented by Rob Bell so it should be good. They have a +1 channel if you miss it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyInWeston Posted July 5, 2019 Report Share Posted July 5, 2019 If its the same one that was on ch5 years ago, did Rob Bell show how empty the inside of the towers were? I'm thinking its the same one. Britains greatest bridges or something or other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fiale Posted July 6, 2019 Report Share Posted July 6, 2019 They should have gone with the arch design. Imagine how amazing it would be to have shops and houses built into the bridge.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lanterne Rouge Posted July 6, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2019 I`m surprised that no-one`s come up with a use for the spaces inside the towers TBH. You`d think a restaurant or something like that would be great in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parking would be a nightmare if all this were shops/restaurants etc. Also where would the A4 go? (A road that I mistakenly travelled not so long ago thinking easy to the motorway... dammit should've used the A369, didnt realise that the A4 would seem like forever to reach the M5 not because of traffic, because the road just kept going on and on) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
