Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3EJ1210 - The Church on Canal Street in Manchester Gay Village during warm summer weather, with outdoor tables, customers, pedestrians and colourful Pride-style bunting creating a lively hospitality setting. The photograph captures one of the best-known nightlife and LGBTQ+ leisure areas in Manchester city centre, where bars, clubs, restaurants and cafés line the pedestrian-friendly canal-side streets around Canal Street, Chorlton Street and Richmond Street. The Church, formerly known as Churchills, is a long-established gay village venue at 37 Chorlton Street, close to Canal Street and Sackville Gardens, and is promoted as part of the area's drag, karaoke and community bar scene. The image is useful for editorial features about Manchester Pride, LGBTQ+ tourism, inclusive city breaks, outdoor drinking, the evening economy, hospitality, nightlife, public realm, urban leisure, visitor spending and the continuing cultural importance of queer spaces in UK cities. The visible rainbow bunting, pavement seating, groups of friends, warm-weather clothing and relaxed social atmosphere make the picture especially suitable for stories about summer leisure, Pride weekend, city-centre footfall, licensed premises, tourism recovery, safe social spaces, community visibility and the balance between residents, visitors and late-night venues in a fast-developing city centre. Canal Street has been central to Manchester's gay village identity for decades and remains strongly associated with LGBTQ+ rights, entertainment, nightlife, activism, music, drag performance and celebration. The scene appears to be photographed in bright daylight under leafy trees, with people enjoying drinks, conversation and passing footfall along the street. No single person dominates the frame, so the emphasis remains on place, atmosphere, hospitality culture and the everyday visibility of Manchester's LGBTQ+ quarter.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3EJD0J5 - Molly House mural on Richmond Street in Manchester's Gay Village, centred on painted portraits of Quentin Crisp and Alan Turing. The wall sits beside one of the area's best-known LGBTQ+ bars, close to Canal Street and the city centre's nightlife, Pride and queer heritage quarter. Crisp's stylised face, with hat, pale hair and carefully theatrical expression, brings in the history of queer self-invention, camp visibility and public defiance. Turing's portrait adds a sharper Manchester connection: the mathematician and codebreaker worked at the University of Manchester after the Second World War, helped shape early computing, and has become a major figure in British LGBTQ+ history because of the state persecution he suffered after his conviction for homosexual acts. Together, the two faces turn a side wall into a public act of remembrance, identity and urban storytelling.
The mural's composition is bright and theatrical, with pink cloud shapes, a yellow bird graphic, pastel colour blocks and the readable words PRIVATE PARKING painted beside the figures. It is not a formal monument or blue-plaque view, but everyday city street art, mixing portraiture, advertising, wall texture and a back-lane setting. The artwork is part of a living leisure district, not a sealed heritage display. It sits among bars, service yards and late-night footfall, where debates about safety and commercial change remain visible. No sky is visible, so the weather and season are not clear, but the even outdoor light and slightly damp-looking ground give the picture the feel of a cool urban day rather than a staged heritage view. The image has strong editorial use for features on Manchester Gay Village, LGBTQ+ history, public art, Alan Turing, Quentin Crisp, Pride culture, queer spaces, nightlife, urban regeneration, equality, memory, identity and the way unofficial city walls can carry cultural history as powerfully as museums or civic statues.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3EM2JNY - Large rainbow Dublin Always Proud banner hanging on Liberty Hall, the SIPTU headquarters on Eden Quay in Dublin 1, ahead of the Dublin Pride March and Parade on Saturday 27 June 2026. The vertical banner carries the colours of the Pride flag and the bilingual message Bródúil i gcónaà , meaning always proud, along with smiling faces at the top and the Dublin.ie and SIPTU logos at the bottom. An Irish tricolour flag flies beside the building, adding a strong civic and national backdrop to the public display. The image is useful for editorial coverage of Dublin Pride, LGBTQ+ visibility, equality, inclusion, union support for Pride, city-centre banners, public celebrations, Irish social change, queer identity, diversity and landmark buildings used for major cultural statements. Liberty Hall is one of Dublin's best-known modern buildings and the long-time headquarters of SIPTU, making it a prominent and recognisable location for a Pride banner of this scale. The official Dublin Pride website states that Dublin Pride Festival 2026 runs from 24 to 28 June, with the main March and Parade on Saturday 27 June 2026. As a stock image, the photograph has strong value for stories about Pride month, Dublin events, public support for LGBTQ+ communities, trade union solidarity, rainbow symbolism, festival promotion, city branding, social progress and inclusive Ireland. The combination of the bright multicoloured banner, the office-tower facade, the Irish flag and the central riverside setting creates a clear visual shorthand for Dublin Pride in the capital city. The image can also illustrate tourism features, event listings, social history, Pride marketing, city dressing, Dublin 1 landmarks and the use of major public-facing buildings to project messages of acceptance and belonging during a festival week.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3DCX6G4 - The exterior of Thompson's Bar, a prominent LGBTQ+ bar situated in Manchester's Gay Village, photographed at 23 Sackville Street, Manchester M1 3NJ. The venue is located close to the Canal Street area, which has been central to Manchester's LGBTQ+ social life for several decades and is internationally recognised as one of the UK's most visible and established gay districts.
The building façade features bold, colourful signage incorporating rainbow imagery, symbolising inclusivity and LGBTQ+ pride. Decorative lighting and hanging baskets contribute to the bar's lively street presence, reflecting the area's role in Manchester's night-time economy and cultural identity.
Manchester's Gay Village has played an important role in the city's social history, activism and visibility for LGBTQ+ communities, particularly from the late twentieth century onwards. Venues such as Thompson's Bar continue to function as social hubs, meeting places and cultural landmarks within the city centre.
Photographed in daylight with urban surroundings visible, the image documents both the physical streetscape of Sackville Street and the wider cultural significance of LGBTQ+ venues within contemporary Manchester.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3E6T4PT - Long descriptive narrative, under 1,990 characters, no URLs, 1,932 chars:
Green Islington People's Plaque to Derek Jarman on the exterior of a building in Islington, north London. The circular plaque commemorates Derek Jarman, 1942 to 1994, and identifies him as an artist, film director and queer activist, recording that he lived at this address between 1967 and 1969. Photographed close up against a pale wall, the image is a strong editorial subject for stories about LGBTQ history, queer activism, British film culture, London heritage plaques, public commemoration and the cultural legacy of one of the most influential and unconventional creative figures of late twentieth-century Britain. Jarman is widely associated with radical independent cinema, experimental art, music videos, stage design, political campaigning and outspoken activism around gay rights and HIV/AIDS awareness. The plaque's wording and clean composition make the photograph especially useful for editorial coverage of LGBT History Month, Pride, heritage trails, London tourism, Islington landmarks, public history projects and the visibility of queer lives in the urban landscape. It also works well for features on memorial plaques, cultural geography, artists' former homes, the social history of Islington and the ways local authorities mark important residents through permanent public signage. Because the plaque uses the phrase queer activist , the image has added relevance for discussions of identity, language, representation and the recognition of LGBTQ contribution within mainstream civic memory. Commercially, the picture is suitable for newspapers, magazines, educational material, travel guides, history websites, biographies and features about Derek Jarman's films, art, politics and continuing influence on British culture. It is also well suited to pieces on London's queer heritage trail, cultural memory, creative activism and the importance of visible civic recognition for LGBTQ public figures

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3E6T4DK - Editorial live music photograph of Rakel Mjöll Leifsdóttir, vocalist of Dream Wife, performing at Future Yard in Birkenhead, Merseyside, England, on 2 November 2024 during the band's Social Lubrication Tour 2023/24. The singer is shown mid-stock-photo/gotonysmith-Performance.html?sortBy=relevant&pseudoid=237DAF28-A4ED-4448-8173-C0E81ABEEC6F Target=_Blank>performance under vivid red and magenta stage lighting, holding a microphone close to her mouth, with bright LED bars, amplifier equipment and part of the drum kit visible behind her. Her expressive pose, colourful patterned stage outfit and direct engagement with the crowd capture the energy, attitude and theatrical presence associated with Dream Wife's live shows.
This image is suitable for editorial use covering Dream Wife, Rakel Mjöll Leifsdóttir, live music in Birkenhead, Future Yard gigs, Merseyside music culture, UK touring bands, women in rock, feminist punk, indie rock, alternative rock and contemporary guitar music. Dream Wife are widely described as an English-Icelandic, London-based band, and this performance fits their reputation for sharp, energetic, politically aware live sets. The photograph works well for concert reviews, music journalism, venue features, tour coverage, album promotion and wider articles about grassroots venues, independent music spaces and the Liverpool City Region live music scene.
The compact venue setting, saturated lighting and close stage perspective give the image a strong documentary feel, making it useful for newspapers, magazines, blogs and music press needing a clear, recognisable performance shot. It also has wider stock value for themes such as female fronted bands, vocalist on stage, microphone performance, stagecraft, modern punk pop aesthetics, intimate gigs, artist touring schedules and the continuing appeal of energetic live alternative music in smaller British venues. Future Yard's independent status also makes the picture useful for local culture and grassroots venue coverage.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RXHHBH - The Scottish and UK governments are going to court in a row over reforms that would make to make it easier for people in Scotland to change their legally recognised gender.
MSPs voted in December last year to pass the controversial Gender Recognition (Reform) Bill by 86 votes to 39.
But in an equally contentious move, Scottish Secretary Alister Jack then used UK government powers to veto the bill, saying it could interfere with equalities law across the whole country.
The legal arguments over Scotland's gender reforms
Scottish ministers have lodged a legal challenge at the Court of Session in a bid to overturn that decision and to have the reforms come in to law.
Presentational grey line
What is the current system?
The Scottish government wants to simplify and speed up the existing process by which people can obtain a gender recognition certificate - the legal recognition of a trans person's acquired gender.
At present, people apply to a UK gender recognition panel and typically must present a diagnosis of gender dysphoria.
This is defined by the NHS as being caused by a mismatch between their biological sex (whether they were born physically male or female) and their gender identity (the way in which they see and describe themselves).
Applicants need to provide two medical reports, one from a specialist detailing their diagnosis and another listing any treatment or surgery they may have had to change their sexual characteristics.
They must also prove they have lived full-time in their acquired gender for at least two years - for example showing they have used a different name in official documents, or changed their gender on their driving licence or passport - and swear an oath that they intend to continue for the rest of their lives.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R64N03 - East Midlands Railway's special Rainbow Train celebrates Belper and Derby Pride
A special livery has been created by the East Midlands Railway's LGBTQIA+ Employee Network to celebrate Pride and support diversity in the workplace.
The Pride train features a stunning rainbow ˜swoosh' livery also features the tagline ˜Lets Roll with Pride' and is now emblazoned to a Class 158 train.
The rail operator has set up six employee network groups, one of which is ˜Stronger Together' with an aim of improving the representation of its LGBTQIA+ employees alongside the promotion of diversity and inclusion within their workplace.
Jacob Lane, Duty Depot Delivery Manager and EMR LGBQTIA+ Network Lead said: The idea for a Pride train came about after a discussion in one of our network meetings. We thought this would be an awesome way of showcasing our commitment as a network to set EMR on the right path to promoting Diversity and Inclusion. It's also a great way to show our support to the Pride events taking place on our network, two of which we are sponsoring.
Alongside the Pride train, we have created pronoun badges for any employees who would like to wear one and our Organisation Development & Culture Manager Amanda Elkin, has created a video on the importance of getting pronouns right .
The Pride train will be out and about on East Midlands Railway Regional routes from the 6th of August and will operate the Derwent Valley Line between Derby and Matlock in support of Belper Pride on Saturday the 6th of August and also Derby Pride which is taking place on Saturday the 10th of September. The route has recently been part of a £500,000 track upgrade project, creating a more reliable railway for passengers.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R6AJ08 - Eberle Street has long been established as the heart of the LGBT Community here in Liverpool, comprising of multiple night clubs, bars and the once world famous Garlands nightclub. As it stood, the street infrastructure was unloved with poor paving, lighting and cellar doors making for an environment that didn't appeal to pedestrians during the day, and created obstacles for the high footfall after dark.
BCA Landscape created a unique identity to the once undesirable street, through the use of a bespoke contemporary paving and matching lights, with subtle hints to Judy Garland's ˜Yellow Brick Road' dotted along the route. The use of a strong geometric pattern draws people up the street and along the way can be found bespoke paving units which have key characters and elements of the ˜Wizard of Oz', from the iconic red shoes to Toto and even the famous Emerald City.
˜'Eberle Street is a hub of Liverpool's night time economy and LGBT community so its redesign required an imaginative approach that had the verve and style to celebrate its unique position and elevate it to a prominence it richly deserves. Once complete it will also greatly enhance the experience of the Commercial District and promote the north-south walking routes between the district and the rest of the city centre. As the nation recently saw with Granby Street's Turner Prize winning transformation, meaningful regeneration has to be led by those who live and work in that area and the input from the business community has been a key part of the entire process.'' “ Jim Gill, Chairman of the Commercial District BID,
which represents more than 850 businesses

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JTF49Y - Saltaire United Reformed Church (originally Saltaire Congregational Church) is a church at Saltaire, West Yorkshire, England. Commissioned and paid for by Titus Salt in the mid 19th century, the church is a Grade I listed building and sits within the Saltaire World Heritage Site.
When Titus Salt, a devoted member of the Congregational church, commenced the design and construction of his model village at Saltaire, a Congregational church was the first public building commissioned. Salt donated the land and paid for the cost of the church himself, a cost of £16,000 (equivalent to £1,713,080 in 2021).
The church was designed, as was the rest of Saltaire, by the Bradford-based architect partnership of Lockwood and Mawson in the Italianate Classical style. Local firms were used for the works. The firm of John Ives did the woodwork and carvings while Moulton Brothers undertook the masonry work.
Since 1972 the church has been known as Saltaire United Reformed Church following the merger of Congregational Church in England and Wales and the Presbyterian Church of England.
The ceiling of the church was badly damaged and partially collapsed due to being affected by Storm Dennis in February 2020

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy TRN0YW - Aberdeen 2019 has been transformed into a vibrant and colourful artistic experience thanks to the return of an annual festival.
More than 100 artists are taking part in the Look Again Festival, which takes advantage of vacant or underused areas of the city and runs until June 16.
Among the highlights of this year's event, the fifth since it was launched, include a Colosseum-inspired colourful installation at the Castlegate and a virtual reality experience in Marischal Quad.
Another major attraction is The Bill Gibb Line, presented by Aberdeen-based writer Shane Strachan.
Gibb was the son of an Aberdeenshire farmer who took the fashion world by storm, with Elizabeth Taylor, Bianca Jagger, and Sandie Shaw wearing his designs in the 1970s.
Look Again co-director Sally Reaper said: In this, our fifth year, Look Again lasts longer and extends further than ever before.
With amazing participation from well over 100 artists, designers, makers, writers and performers, we really feel we are showing what a great creative community we have right here in the north-east.
We are so pleased to be highlighting this wealth of talent.
Our 2019 programme is bold and ambitious, outward-looking and connected, and we are delighted at the collaborations and partnerships that have emerged and continue to grow through Look Again.
An extensive series of talks, workshops and events will also give opportunities to learn more about the work of the participating artists and the creative industries in the north-east.
Launched in 2015, Look Again is now part of Gray's School of Art at Robert Gordon University (RGU) and also holds events throughout the year.
Libby Curtis, head of the art school, said: Look Again is fully committed to supporting the growth and development of Aberdeen's incredible creative industry “ support it critically needs in order to maintain its robust cultural offering but also to retain the fantastic artistic talent we have here in the north-east.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RPGEFB - M Nairn & Co Ltd were the firm of Michael Nairn, specialising in floor-cloths, power looms and linoleum.
And according to that excellent site Grace's Guide to British Industrial History at the 1862 Exhibition in London and the 1867 Paris Exhibition Nairns Floorcloth came into its own and won the prizes.
In 1870 Nairn and Co built a six-storey factory in Kirkcaldy and by 1877 with the introduction of linoleum, Kirkcaldy soon became the largest producer of the new floorcovering in the world.
In the 1920s the family joined forces with a supplier in Erie, Pennsylvania, which manufactured a three-foot wide simulated wood grain product used to border area rugs and linoleum.
This product was known as Congoleum, because the asphalt materials used to make it came from the Belgian Congo in Africa.
The new company called itself Congoleum-Nairn.
Congoleum-Nairn continued to sell Congoleum Gold Seal Rugs and Nairn linoleum through the late 1930's, until its researchers started experimenting with a new material called vinyl.
However, further research into developing vinyl flooring was interrupted when World War II began.
Following the war, the company continued to grow in the rapidly expanding housing market of that period.
2008 Forbo-Nairn is now the UK's only linoleum manufacturer. Forbo-Nairn have their own website.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RFF5D0 - Manchester's famous Canal Street is now home to the largest LGBT piece of street art in the UK. The multi-coloured makeover took a little more than a week of hard work on the side of The Molly House on Richmond Street to be finished.
Organised by Queerchester, which lobbies and fundraises for arts and culture initiatives in the gay village, the project saw the entries of the street art competition winners Glenn Jones (the overall winner), Lauren Jo Kelly, Adam Pryce and Mark Wallis become bigger than they could ever have imagined with the help of renowned graffiti artists Aylo (Hayley Garner) and Cbloxx (Joy Gilleard). Over 950 online votes and 7 judges chose between 29 brilliantly creative entries to pick the winners.
The mural depicts five famous faces who are considered to be LGBT icons, two of which are very well known around Manchester's gay scene
legendary drag queens Anna Phylactic (top) and Foo Foo Lammar (top right). The others are feminist Emmeline Pankhurst (top left), writer Quentin Crisp (bottom left) and scientist Alan Turing (bottom right). Lauren Jo Kelly designed Anna while Glenn Jones created the other four. Adam Pryce's cute critters in the top left above the rainbow and Mark Wallis' naked man below it complete the work of art.
If you've been around the village during the last week or so you may have seen the mural, which was done using spray paint instead of brushes, in progress. Have you been to see it and what are your thoughts? Would you like to see more art like this around Canal Street and the rest of Manchester? We certainly would!
You can read more about Queerchester and its aim for more arts around Canal Street on their Facebook page and for more images from throughout the competition and of the mural as it unfolded.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RFF5E4 - Manchester's famous Canal Street is now home to the largest LGBT piece of street art in the UK. The multi-coloured makeover took a little more than a week of hard work on the side of The Molly House on Richmond Street to be finished.
Organised by Queerchester, which lobbies and fundraises for arts and culture initiatives in the gay village, the project saw the entries of the street art competition winners Glenn Jones (the overall winner), Lauren Jo Kelly, Adam Pryce and Mark Wallis become bigger than they could ever have imagined with the help of renowned graffiti artists Aylo (Hayley Garner) and Cbloxx (Joy Gilleard). Over 950 online votes and 7 judges chose between 29 brilliantly creative entries to pick the winners.
The mural depicts five famous faces who are considered to be LGBT icons, two of which are very well known around Manchester's gay scene
legendary drag queens Anna Phylactic (top) and Foo Foo Lammar (top right). The others are feminist Emmeline Pankhurst (top left), writer Quentin Crisp (bottom left) and scientist Alan Turing (bottom right). Lauren Jo Kelly designed Anna while Glenn Jones created the other four. Adam Pryce's cute critters in the top left above the rainbow and Mark Wallis' naked man below it complete the work of art.
If you've been around the village during the last week or so you may have seen the mural, which was done using spray paint instead of brushes, in progress. Have you been to see it and what are your thoughts? Would you like to see more art like this around Canal Street and the rest of Manchester? We certainly would!
You can read more about Queerchester and its aim for more arts around Canal Street on their Facebook page and for more images from throughout the competition and of the mural as it unfolded.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RFF5E5 - Canal Street, the centre of the Manchester Gay Village, is a street in Manchester city centre in North West England. The pedestrianised street, which runs along the west side of the Rochdale Canal, is lined with gay bars and restaurants. At night time, and in daytime in the warmer months, the street is filled with visitors, often including gay and lesbian tourists from all over the world. The northern end of the street meets Minshull Street and the southern meets Princess Street
part of the street looks across the Rochdale Canal into Sackville Park.
90's Focus led to several of the pubs on or near Canal Street acquiring a predominantly gay clientele. In 1991, Manto (Manchester Tomorrow) bar opened at no. 46. It was built in 1989 by Benedict Smith Architects. Unlike the other gay bars at that time, Manto had large glass windows, allowing the casual passer-by to view what was going on inside. Previously, many establishments catering for the gay community were often keen to conceal activities from the general public, but the architectural design of Manto was seen as a queer visual statement of we're here, we're queer “ get used to it, and a brick-and-mortar refusal to hide any more, or to remain underground and invisible.
Over the next decade, more numerous and larger bars opened along the canal side, turning Canal Street into the centre of the most successful gay village in Europe. Because of this, the Canal Street street signs are regularly defaced to read Anal Treet or Anal Street. The success was further enhanced by the use of Canal Street and its bars in several television series, including Bob and Rose and Queer as Folk, both written by Russell T Davies.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RFF5JN - Turing has been honoured in various ways in Manchester, the city where he worked towards the end of his life. In 1994, a stretch of the A6010 road (the Manchester city intermediate ring road) was named Alan Turing Way. A bridge carrying this road was widened, and carries the name Alan Turing Bridge. A statue of Turing was unveiled in Manchester on 23 June 2001 in Sackville Park, between the University of Manchester building on Whitworth Street and Canal Street. The memorial statue depicts the father of computer science sitting on a bench at a central position in the park. Turing is shown holding an apple. The cast bronze bench carries in relief the text 'Alan Mathison Turing 1912“1954', and the motto 'Founder of Computer Science' as it could appear if encoded by an Enigma machine: 'IEKYF ROMSI ADXUO KVKZC GUBJ'. However, the meaning of the coded message is disputed, as the 'u' in 'computer' matches up with the 'u' in 'ADXUO'. As a letter encoded by an enigma machine can not appear as itself, the actual message behind the code is uncertain.[207]
Turing memorial statue plaque in Sackville Park, Manchester
A plaque at the statue's feet reads 'Father of computer science, mathematician, logician, wartime codebreaker, victim of prejudice'. There is also a Bertrand Russell quotation: Mathematics, rightly viewed, possesses not only truth, but supreme beauty”a beauty cold and austere, like that of sculpture. The sculptor buried his own old Amstrad computer under the plinth as a tribute to the godfather of all modern computers - The Alan Turing Memorial, situated in Sackville Park in Manchester, England, is in memory of Alan Turing, a pioneer of modern computing. Turing is believed to have committed suicide in 1954 two years after being convicted of gross indecency (i.e. homosexual acts). As such he is as much a gay icon as an icon of computing, and it is no coincidence that this memorial is situated near Canal Street, Manchester's gay village.

It was built in 1989 by Benedict Smith Architects. Unlike the other gay bars at that time, Manto had large glass windows, allowing the casual passer-by to view what was going on inside. Previously, many establishments catering for the gay community were often keen to conceal activities from the general public, but the architectural design of Manto was seen as a queer visual statement of we're here, we're queer “ get used to it, and a brick-and-mortar refusal to hide any more, or to remain underground and invisible.
Over the next decade, more numerous and larger bars opened along the canal side, turning Canal Street into the centre of the most successful gay village in Europe. Because of this, the Canal Street street signs are regularly defaced to read Anal Treet or Anal Street. The success was further enhanced by the use of Canal Street and its bars in several television series, including Bob and Rose and Queer as Folk, both written by Russell T Davies.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RFF5XF - The park contains the Alan Turing memorial statue, which depicts the father of modern computing sitting on a bench at a central position in the park. The park was chosen because, It's got the university science buildings ... on one side and its got all the gay bars on the other side, where apparently he spent most of his evenings
The statue was unveiled on 23 June, Turing's birthday, in 2001. It was conceived by Richard Humphry, a barrister from Stockport, who set up the Alan Turing Memorial Fund in order to raise the necessary funds. Humphry had come up with the idea of a statue after seeing Hugh Whitemore's play Breaking the Code starring the actor Sir Derek Jacobi, and Jacobi became the patron of the fund. Glyn Hughes, an industrial sculptor from Adlington near Westhoughton, was commissioned to sculpt the statue. The Fund eventually raised around £15,000, which was far short of the £50,000 needed to have the statue cast in Britain. No major computer company donated to the fund, which was, according to the sculptor, because Turing was not American. The statue was cast in China.
Turing is shown holding an apple”a symbol classically used to represent forbidden love, as well as being the fruit of the tree of knowledge, the object that inspired Isaac Newton's theory of gravitation, and the means of Turing's own death. The cast bronze bench carries in relief the text 'Alan Mathison Turing 1912-1954', and the motto 'Founder of Computer Science' as it would appear if encoded by an Enigma machine: 'IEKYF ROMSI ADXUO KVKZC GUBJ'.
A plinth at the statue's feet says 'Father of computer science, mathematician, logician, wartime codebreaker, victim of prejudice'. There is also a Bertrand Russell quotation saying 'Mathematics, rightly viewed, possesses not only truth, but supreme beauty”a beauty cold and austere, like that of sculpture.' The sculptor buried his old Amstrad computer, which was an early popular home computer, under the plinth.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RKMM8B - Brighton is a seaside resort on the south coast of England that is part of the city of Brighton and Hove, located 47 miles (76 km) south of London.
Brighton's location has made it a popular destination for tourists, renowned for its diverse communities, quirky shopping areas, large cultural, music and arts scene and its large LGBT population, leading to its recognition as the unofficial gay capital of the UK. Brighton attracted 7.5 million day visitors in 2015/16 and 4.9 million overnight visitors, and is the most popular seaside destination in the UK for overseas tourists. Brighton has also been called the UK's hippest city, and the happiest place to live in the UK
In 1985, the Borough Council described three myths about Brighton's economy. Common beliefs were that most of the working population commuted to London every day
that tourism provided most of Brighton's jobs and income
or that the borough's residents were composed entirely of wealthy theatricals and retired businesspeople rather than workers. Brighton has been an important centre for commerce and employment since the 18th century. It is home to several major companies, some of which employ thousands of people locally
as a retail centre it is of regional importance
creative, digital and new media businesses are increasingly significant
and, although Brighton was never a major industrial centre, its railway works contributed to Britain's rail industry in the 19th and 20th centuries, particularly in the manufacture of steam locomotives.
Since the amalgamation of Brighton and Hove, economic and retail data has been produced at a citywide level only. Examples of statistics include: Brighton and Hove's tourism industry contributes £380m to the economy and employs 20,000 people directly or indirectly
the city has 9,600 registered companies
and a 2001 report identified it as one of five supercities for the future. In the past couple of years tourists to Brighton and Hove have fallen.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RKMM8T - The Royal Pavilion, also known as the Brighton Pavilion, is a Grade I listed former royal residence located in Brighton, England. Beginning in 1787, it was built in three stages as a seaside retreat for George, Prince of Wales, who became the Prince Regent in 1811. It is built in the Indo-Saracenic style prevalent in India for most of the 19th century. The current appearance of the Pavilion, with its domes and minarets, is the work of architect John Nash, who extended the building starting in 1815.
The purchase of the Royal Pavilion from Queen Victoria, by Brighton, marked the beginnings of the site's attraction as a tourist destination. The Royal Pavilion has been changed from a private residence to a public attraction under civic ownership. Today, around 400,000 people visit the Royal Pavilion annually. General filming and photography is not permitted inside the Royal Pavilion. Many of the items in the palace are on loan, in particular from HM The Queen, and one condition of the loans is that the items cannot be photographed or reproduced without prior written permission.
The Royal Pavilion is licensed as a venue for weddings. On 29 March 2014, the Royal Pavilion was host to one of a number of the first legal same-sex marriages to take place in the United Kingdom following the passage of the 2013 Same Sex Couples Act.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RKMM9B - Brighton Fringe is an open-access arts festival held annually in Brighton, England. It is the largest annual arts festival in England and one of the largest fringe festivals in the world. Brighton Fringe 2018 took place from 4 May “ 3 June. The programme of 2018 included 1008 events at over 166 venues across 4 weeks.
Brighton Fringe runs at a similar time to Brighton Festival, and in 2013 extended its run to four weeks. In 2019, Brighton Fringe will run from 3 May-2 June.
One of the event's main objectives is to promote local talent and the arts. It also offers performers an opportunity for their event to be reviewed or picked up by promoters, as well as going on to Edinburgh. This is why anyone can put on a Brighton Fringe event. In 2011 Brighton Fringe launched the Professional Development Programme, aimed at offering workshops to aspiring performers wanting to progress in the business. In 2012, Brighton Fringe opened its own on-street box office, which provided a physical base for the arts event, selling tickets as well as being a hub for promoters and performers. They also launched Brighton in the Square, a showcase of Brighton Fringe performers at the Leicester Square Theatre in London.
As part of the 2012 Cultural Olympiad, Brighton Fringe introduced the Dip Your Toe project in 2012, which featured performances in six custom-built Victorian bathing machines, which were located throughout Brighton and Hove during the month of May. In 2014, the organisation launched an Arts Council England supported scheme called Window which showcases productions suitable for touring.
Brighton Fringe is a registered charity but does not rely on public funding, in fact, less than 3% of its income is generated from public sources. The other sources of revenue include participants' registration fees, advertising, sponsorship and Friends membership.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RKMM9Y - British Airways i360 is a 162-metre (531 ft) observation tower on the seafront of Brighton, East Sussex, England at the landward end of the former West Pier. The tower opened on 4 August 2016. From the fully enclosed viewing pod, visitors experience 360-degree views across Brighton, the South Downs, the English Channel and on the clearest days it is possible to see Beachy Head 17 miles (27 km) to the east and the Isle of Wight 41 miles (66 km) to the west.
British Airways i360 was designed, engineered, manufactured and promoted by the team responsible for the London Eye. It is estimated by the developers that the i360 will generate more than 440 permanent jobs
160 posts at the attraction, and additional jobs from the spin-off benefits to other businesses in the city. The attraction cost £46 million, with £36 million being funded by a Public Works Loan Board (PWLB) loan through Brighton and Hove city council.
Formerly known as the Brighton i360, the project aimed to attract 739,000 paying customers every year, but has consistently fallen significantly short of this. The owner of the site, the West Pier Trust, hoped in 2014 that a successful i360 would lead to the rebuilding of the historic West Pier. The i360 carried its 1,000,000th passenger on the 11am flight on 11 March 2019.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DDXKGB - LGBT Warrington is organised by LGBT members who are all volunteers. The group has built great relationships with partners, which include the Council, police, health and local businesses.
They are here to help and welcome anyone who would like to join us to stamp out the stigma people may have on the LGBT community.
The group offers support to those who need it on a 1-2-1 basis and is treated with great confidentiality, and point people in the right direction of the services they require.
They meet throughout the year mainly to have a brew and chat about life in general, to meet and make new friends, and for those who require extra support, to help by signposting to relevant services in Warrington. We also at times hold activities such as bowling, theatre trips, quizzes and games.
They also have nights out in the town centre at Cotton Mill or Show Bar and take part with events they are holding, or even have the odd night out to Manchester to Canal Street or to the theatre.
During the year they are also visited by guest speakers.
They welcome visitors and potential new members whatever their sexuality, though is open to 18+ only.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DDXR69 - LGBT Warrington is organised by LGBT members who are all volunteers. The group has built great relationships with partners, which include the Council, police, health and local businesses.
They are here to help and welcome anyone who would like to join us to stamp out the stigma people may have on the LGBT community.
The group offers support to those who need it on a 1-2-1 basis and is treated with great confidentiality, and point people in the right direction of the services they require.
They meet throughout the year mainly to have a brew and chat about life in general, to meet and make new friends, and for those who require extra support, to help by signposting to relevant services in Warrington. We also at times hold activities such as bowling, theatre trips, quizzes and games.
They also have nights out in the town centre at Cotton Mill or Show Bar and take part with events they are holding, or even have the odd night out to Manchester to Canal Street or to the theatre.
During the year they are also visited by guest speakers.
They welcome visitors and potential new members whatever their sexuality, though is open to 18+ only.

\u00bfWhats this iPod Shuffle set all about? Read about it here
'Walk on the Wild Side' is a Lou Reed song from his 1972 David Bowie produced second solo album Transformer. It namechecks taboo topics such as transsexuality, drugs, male prostitutes and oral sex and the term 'colored' to refer to African Americans, a term which was still common in that era.
The lyrics tell of a series of individuals and their journeys to New York City, and refers to several of the regular 'superstars' at Andy Warhol's New York studio, The Factory, namely Holly Woodlawn, Candy Darling, Joe Dallesandro, Jackie Curtis and Joe Campbell (referred to in the song by his nickname Sugar Plum Fairy). Candy Darling was also the subject of Reed's song 'Candy Says'.
The saxophone solo played over the fadeout of the song was performed by Ronnie Ross, who had previously taught David Bowie to play the saxophone during Bowie's childhood. It has been heavily covered by Echo and the Bunnymen and The Strokes to name a few.
I picked up on Reed after an introduction to the VU.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy D8HDMB - Manchester Pride is an annual gay pride festival and parade held each summer in the city of Manchester, England. It is one of the longest running in the country and attracts thousands of visitors to the city's Gay Village, centred around Canal Street, each year. The festival's events that take place within the Village require a paid-for Pride wristband for entry, while other events, such as the parade, can be watched by any spectator.
The current ten day festival includes a Pride Fringe with a series of arts, music and cultural events all over the city as well as community events including poetry readings, quizzes and film showings, culminating in The Big Weekend, a 72-hour party during the August bank holiday weekend in Canal Street and the surrounding area, with a parade through the streets of Manchester.

*** By Request ***
Streets like a jungle......
'Boys and girls' was the lead single from the 'Park Life' album. It was Blur's first top 5 UK hit and most successful single until 'Country House' reached number 1 the following year. The single was seen as a comeback for the band, who had had a lean commercial period for a couple of years. The song surpassed the band's previous commercial peak 'There's No Other Way' by three spots on the UK Singles Chart.
The video, directed by 10cc's Kevin Godley, featured Blur performing the song against a bluescreen backdrop of documentary footage people on 18-30 package holidays. Godley branded the video as 'Page 3 rubbish' while Blur found it 'perfect'. The front cover of the single was taken from a pack of Durex condoms.
In 1994, the song was named single of the year by NME and Melody Maker in the UK. It was also nominated for best song at the MTV Europe Music Awards. Everyone should own at least one Blur album, my choice would be the 'Midlife: A Beginner's Guide to Blur'. Track it down, tell 'em I sent you.
------------------------
Manchester has a wealth of LGBT culture and activities. The sitcom drama 'Queer as folk' was set in the Canal St area of the city. 20th century broadcaster and social commentator Brian Redhead once said 'Manchester ... is the capital, in every sense, of the North of England, where the modern world was born. The people know their geography is without equal. Their history is their response to it'. Whilst Ian Brown of the Stone Roses has previously said that 'Manchester has everything except a beach' (er.. top man, bob-on!).
Manchester has claimed to have the UK's largest gay population outside of London. Gay Village, centred on the Canal Street area, is home to numerous shops, restaurants, bars and clubs. On the last weekend in August it hosts the Manchester Pride Festival (previously known as Mardi Gras and Gayfest).
Manchester's gay culture was brought to mainstream attention on television series Queer as Folk and Coronation Street. It is also the birthplace of several gay rights organisations including the Campaign for Homosexual Equality, Queer Youth Alliance, The Lesbian &
Gay Foundation.
Manchester has its own gay sports teams, Village Manchester FC (soccer), Northern Wave (swimming) and Village Spartans (Rugby) which take part in Manchester's annual Pride Games. In the 1990s Manchester City Council gave support to the establishment of a gay centre and employed four lesbians and gay men to help implement their equal opportunity policy. Their work continued in spite of Section 28 and the City Council actively supported the Mardi Gras and other gay events.
The year round gay and lesbian heritage trail exhibits Manchester's gay history. In 2003, Manchester played host city to the annual Europride festival. The Lesbian &
Gay Foundation, Britain's biggest gay charity, is based on Richmond Street in the city centre. Manchester Metropolitan University has been named the most gay friendly university in the UK.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2ADR29X - Via bar on Canal Street in Manchester's Gay Village, photographed at night with coloured exterior lighting, illuminated signage, awnings and people moving along the pavement. The image captures the lively evening atmosphere of one of Manchester city centre's best known LGBTQ+ nightlife areas, where Canal Street, the Rochdale Canal and nearby streets are associated with queer culture, Pride events, cabaret, bars, clubs, restaurants and tourism. Via Manchester is listed at 28-30 Canal Street, Manchester M1 3EZ, and its own venue information describes it as a friendly local LGBTQ+ bar with live entertainment seven days a week. The venue also describes itself as open since 1995 and as the grande dame of Canal Street, a long standing part of the Gay Village's entertainment scene. This editorial image is useful for coverage of Manchester Pride, LGBTQ+ travel, nightlife, city breaks, inclusive tourism, cabaret venues, evening economy, urban leisure, hospitality, queer history and the cultural identity of Manchester. The visible VIA signs, colourful rainbow-style lighting and twilight street scene give the photograph strong search value for articles about Canal Street, the Gay Village, Pride weekends, LGBTQIA+ venues, night-time economy, bars and live entertainment in North West England. The picture also works for broader features on city centre regeneration, tourism marketing, weekend breaks, hospitality recovery, pub and bar culture, Manchester after dark and the importance of LGBTQ+ venues as social and cultural anchors. The mix of deep blue dusk sky, bright coloured lights, brick architecture and blurred passers-by creates a sense of movement and excitement while keeping the venue frontage as the main documentary subject. Editorial use should recognise that the venue name and visible signage may be protected branding, so the image is best suited to news, travel, culture, nightlife and documentary contexts

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RFF5E6 - Canal Street, the centre of the Manchester Gay Village, is a street in Manchester city centre in North West England. The pedestrianised street, which runs along the west side of the Rochdale Canal, is lined with gay bars and restaurants. At night time, and in daytime in the warmer months, the street is filled with visitors, often including gay and lesbian tourists from all over the world. The northern end of the street meets Minshull Street and the southern meets Princess Street
part of the street looks across the Rochdale Canal into Sackville Park.
90's Focus led to several of the pubs on or near Canal Street acquiring a predominantly gay clientele. In 1991, Manto (Manchester Tomorrow) bar opened at no. 46. It was built in 1989 by Benedict Smith Architects. Unlike the other gay bars at that time, Manto had large glass windows, allowing the casual passer-by to view what was going on inside. Previously, many establishments catering for the gay community were often keen to conceal activities from the general public, but the architectural design of Manto was seen as a queer visual statement of we're here, we're queer “ get used to it, and a brick-and-mortar refusal to hide any more, or to remain underground and invisible.
Over the next decade, more numerous and larger bars opened along the canal side, turning Canal Street into the centre of the most successful gay village in Europe. Because of this, the Canal Street street signs are regularly defaced to read Anal Treet or Anal Street. The success was further enhanced by the use of Canal Street and its bars in several television series, including Bob and Rose and Queer as Folk, both written by Russell T Davies.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2M8BP05 - Epictetus (Greek: Ἐπίκτητος, EpÃktÄ“tos
c. 50 “ c. 135 AD) was a Greek Stoic philosopher. He was born into slavery at Hierapolis, Phrygia (present-day Pamukkale, in western Turkey) and lived in Rome until his banishment, when he went to Nicopolis in northwestern Greece for the rest of his life. His teachings were written down and published by his pupil Arrian in his Discourses and Enchiridion.
Epictetus taught that philosophy is a way of life and not simply a theoretical discipline. To Epictetus, all external events are beyond our control
we should accept whatever happens calmly and dispassionately. However, individuals are responsible for their own actions, which they can examine and control through rigorous self-discipline.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy H3TNWN - Photo shows City Centre Manchester embossed cast iron Grid, Right at the heart of things, England UK. The image is suited to editorial use around street art, visual culture, murals, poster design, neon, typography, nightlife, creative quarters and the way cities express identity through walls, signs and public surfaces. Such photographs can also support features on tourism, regeneration, counterculture, community memory and changing urban neighbourhoods. The supplied location evidence places the subject at or near Manchester, England, UK, which adds value for buyers searching by town, city, region or postcode. The visible artwork, typography or sign is the core evidence, with location and public realm context adding value. It should work for editorial buyers needing authentic, non-staged British or travel imagery for news, magazine, blog, local government, heritage, housing, transport, tourism, retail, public policy or social commentary use. The caption should be checked against the visible photograph before upload so that any readable signs, weather, time of day and people context are accurately reflected without overstating facts not shown in the image. The strongest sales value is the combination of named subject, real location and everyday documentary style, giving picture editors a flexible image that can sit alongside features, opinion pieces, explainers, historical retrospectives and local news. Search relevance is helped by including concise place names, visible brand or wording, functional subject terms, and wider editorial concepts such as public realm, consumer behaviour, heritage, travel, leisure and community life where they genuinely match the picture.
