Sometimes a place exceeds all expectations
- and Liverpool is just that place. Like another famous man
in black, our intrepid caped crusader surveys Gotham City
from the top of the Liver Building and discovers the "place
on the pool" is crammed full of lost treasures. More
than we can fit in one programme. You might know what modern
"scouse" is but do you know where the "scouse"
dialect came from? Clue: They didn't take for an answer either!
Ever heard of Liverpool castle? No, well you're gonna see
it in the fleshy stone. And we're going where no film crew
has gone before - right to the pub before we're forced to
don hard hat and descend 60 feet below the streets of Liverpool
city to explore the convoluted mind of eccentric Victorian
tunnel mad genius Joseph Williamson - the mole of Edge Hill.
You'll be transported to Neptune's Rings (er good job it wasn't
Uranus we were visiting...) Mark's magical mystery tour of
Liverpool ends on a big reveal - the only surviving one in
the world - a priceless artifact from the Titanic disaster
and Liverpool has it safe and secure...
Time Team? The kings are dead - long live the new kids on
the block!
