Michael Portillos Great British Railway Journys BBC2 16/20 6.30 pm

It was an excellent programme, we enjoyed it very much. I agree with Di, that it was on at an awkward time. Perhap's the next series will be put on at a later date. What was the name of the hotel that used to stand next door to New Street Station years ago, was it 'Queen's'. I remember it had fabulous chandeliers. Did anyone watch the David Dimbleby programme on Sunday night? Another fascinating one to watch.

Yes it was the Queens Hotel. I remember the chandeliers. I understand they went to the Adelphi Hotel in Liverpool, another old railway hotel.
