MediaCityUK party verdict: it was crap

The party at the freshly painted MediaCityUK Studios this past Friday will not be going down as the shindig of the year.

Comments on How-Do's party review are less than enthused about the event, with some people slagging off everything from the food and drink to the entertainment and even Mr Greasley's speech. Here are just a few choice quotes - in case they get removed (which apparently has already happened to a few - see comment #8);

"This event was utter crap. Short on substance - just like the food."

"Comedian was ok, beer was cold - but apart from that this was pretentious rubbish at it's best. "

Not a great start for MediaCityUK, but maybe they'll get it right next time.

Not a lot of MediaCityUK news to report since the ITV bombshell, except perhaps this article from the FT about the positive impact MediaCityUK is likely to have on Salford and the surrounding areas. The article also provides a quick introduction to the local housing market - useful if you're looking at relocating to Salford. Mar 26, 2009 - 11:04 PM

Debate about the BBC's staff relocation packages continues to rumble on and on - Liz Hunt at the Telegraph says, "I can't be the only taxpayer with northern credentials who feels insulted by the implication that having to up sticks from the South East is akin to an enforced relocation to Mogadishu or Harare." (full article here). Meanwhile, Andy Spinoza at How-Do offers some relocation advice to BBC staff - "Some media people will find the value, community, and friendliness on offer in the likes of Monton and Eccles more appealing than the fancy nick-nack shops of Didsbury..."
