Looks like an interesting programme if you like your local history. Exploring the City's underground canals, railway tunnels and war time bunkers.

It's where the Build-a-burgers meetings take place LOL
Great programme, I knew about the room above Burger King, and I'd rumours of a nuclear bunker but wow. Can't believe we Have so much history hidden away.
You wouldn't catch me down that first tunnel he went down, which he wouldn't tell us where it was (looked like the dock feeder near greyfriars), it was a bit snug.
I didn't watch the show but I can only presume he gave a full account of the origins of Cardiff's famous Fried Potato Road.
Just watched it on IPlayer, what a fantastic programme. Ashamed to say that apart from Insole Court (I walk my dog around there now and again), I knew nothing about most of the places he visited and only a vague knowledge of the others - amazed to learn what is below Tescos at Culverhouse Cross!
I have been in the bunker on top of the Wenallt when I worked for BT,scary place even in 70s.The map table was still in place then.I have also walked through Wenvoe tunnel not long after it closed and then along the line to Walnut Tree Viaduct at Taff's Well.
In the last place he visited, some nuclear war room thing, CCFC was sprayed on one of the walls.
Bastard Coventry fans!!!!
A room above Burger King,a clock that doesn't work,some tunnels and some bunkers,Cardiff has less history than a white dog turd.
