“Well this tells me nothing new. As a Bradfordian there at the time of the fire we all knew thee stories but it was the 1980s in post industrial city in decline. Loads of smokers, loads of litter, fires regular. The series asks that so many fires is unlucky. Then you did not live in Bradford in 1970s and 80s. We had loads on our street, in the old mills, derelict houses. This kind of journalism is grifter comms, no training in how to do proper oral history and post trauma memory witnessing. This could have taken a meta view of the rumours and has a critical eye on the event. For example NO ONE ever reports on how much the Muslim community on the streets around Valley Parade on the day of the fire. Not one newspaper. You had to be there to know they threw open their doors; hundreds of them, got to the stadium and took in walking wounded and looked after us. Amazing humanity and many fans of Bradford remember what that community did and passed down those stories. This podcast surely was an opportunity to remember that untold story but know. Old news in a new podcast bottle. An opportunity missed.”

Listening to Martin Fletcher, absolutely heartbreaking and what an amazing man. The podcast also does well to explore the politics...”Read full review »

“Shame on everyone involved in producing this. had it been left interviewing the survivors and bereaved-the community would have been welcoming, had the title it
not contained a reference to the estimated temperature of an inferno that killed 56 or shown flames-it may have been a nice memorial in...”Read full review »
