Fact About Bradford
Bradford is home to the UK's tallest city centre fountain — it reaches 30 meters (100 feet) and can be found in Bradford City Park

Bradford is brilliantly surprising

There's far more to Bradford than its famous curry. For a start it's the world's first UNESCO city of film.

It's the home of David Hockney, the gateway to some beautiful countryside and a place where the streets are full of remarkable architecture. Book your train ticket and experience the delights of Bradford's diversity for yourself.

Plus, when you join LNER Perks you'll get £5 free and 2% credit back every time you travel with us.

Sarah Millican: Late Bloomer

28th Feb

South Shields-born Sarah Millican followed an unusual path to fame. Left unexpectedly by her husband in 2004, she moved back home with her parents and started taking writing workshops as an outlet for processing her emotions. Her first ever stand-up gig was in a Newcastle pub called The Dog & Parrot, which had a fringe theatre upstairs. Although she had no idea what she was doing, Millican drew on the pain of her failed marriage and connected with the audience… from then on, she was hooked on live comedy.
