Well, I'd say Lesley's first in line for a spare ticket as she's already made arrangements to come and stay with us in the YH on Tues night. But why don't you just come for the Tuesday apres-piste action?Ben Hunter wrote:Any spare tickets or owt? Just realised I wouldn't mind coming after all, but I realise it's pretty late in the day to be asking.

The studios are the Granada Studios on Quay Street. I'm not sure about the hotel, but I know the staff are based at the very swanky Midland Hotel just up the road from the studio. I only know because Damian told me this after a recording in June, just outside the hotel.Tom wrote:Which hotel do the contestants stay in when they're recording? Someone please tell me its better than the holiday inn Leeds?! and where in Manchester are the new studios?

If not, it's a day out, and I can say hello to a few of you guys. I'll just loiter outside for a bit.
Thanks, Lesley. You're a sweetheart!

There's only TTTs in there between 9pm and 3am. There are people in the room so they've either been cropped or no-one entered or left, spoke, attempted a TTT, miskeyed, anything.
