On the face of it, Manchester’s claims to Alan Turing are slender.

Book Review: Peach by Wayne Barton
Typically, Fanny Price is the least well-loved of Austen’s heroines.
Review: International Women’s Day Event, Manchester Central Library
The clamour of the world scrolls incessantly, regurgitating received wisdoms about Brexit, Fleabag and Neverland.
Theatre Review: The Wonderful Wizard Of Oz, Octagon Theatre, University Of Bolton Stadium

Book Review: A Version of the Truth by B.P. Walter
Appearances can be deceptive.
