Today marks 30 years since the IRA bomb tore through Manchester.
This photo, taken from Mr Thomas’s Chop House, captures a dark moment in our history, but what followed was a masterclass in resilience. Manchester didn’t just recover; it rebuilt into the vibrant city we love today. Stronger together.
What’s your memory of the days events?

My first job in the film and TV Industry was this fantastic promo by Danny Boyle.
I was one of the location marshals on tower bridge helping close the bridge to allow the helicopter to go through.
Weirdly enough, Danny Boyle told me to get into the industry 2 years earlier.
It’s strange how things come together.
The 2012 Olympics promo where Daniel Craig’s James Bond reports to Queen Elizabeth II before escorting her to the Games.
An all-time great piece of event marketing. 👑🎬🇬🇧
@Casman2004@AmazonMGMStudio One of my top episodes in SG1, and one of the most underrated episodes in Season 4, which was Gold! SG1 firing on all cylinders at this point!
THE BOURNE IDENTITY was released 24 years ago today. A reinvention of the spy genre and the film that launched Matt Damon as an action star, the behind the scenes story might have your doubting your identity…

Ben Affleck says actors have no job security because 130K people are in the actors union and only 30,000 work each year
"I got real cold and had a couple of movies that didn't work... all of a sudden it can be kind of over for you"
"there's no seniority, there's no tenure, there's no retirement. There's no gold watch"
"if your show doesn't work or your movie doesn't work and nobody wants to hire you, they're just gonna hire someone else"
"there's 130,000 people in SAG and there's only 30,000 people that work every year"
It’s being one week since cancellation and nothing has come out of Amazon regarding Stargate.
Shout out, what is the closest Billboard (even a digital one) close to Amazon HQ in LA? We should find the cost, crowdfund it and put up a SAVE STARGATE billboard to show support to the show.
It would be great if someone could ask Jason Momoa his thoughts on the Stargate Cancellation during the Supergirl press tour to spread the word 😉
Stargate isn’t disappearing without a fight.
Maybe we should all do a hashtag tomorrows on the week anniversary of that stupid decision.
This day in history 6 June 1944, #DDay, British soldiers landed in Normandy alongside Allied forces to begin the liberation of Europe 🪖
Today, we remember their courage, sacrifice, and service 🫡
Lest we forget.
@Variety Absolutely gutted for everyone involved.
One thing us Gaters know, it’s not ‘if’, it’s ‘when’, even if we have to wait a bit longer!
Stargate isn’t dead, it’s just waiting to be unlocked again.
