Description
A conspiracy thriller unravelling the lie hidden underneath the streets of Manchester.
It all began with a date-sealed box that was delivered to my late grandfather. What I have found, I believe, may be one of the biggest coverups in British history. The further I follow this trail, the deeper the secrets seem to go. From an underground bunker, right here in Manchester City Centre, to secret medical trials and witnesses pressured into silence. Whoever they are, they don't want anyone to hear this story.
But the city speaks - if you know where to listen.

Our investigation gets turned upside down. Shocking revelations fracture already strained relationships, and one phone call changes everything.
One thing we haven’t really asked ourselves: who sent the Bläckfisk box in the first place?
We visit the source to find answers, but our attempt to gain entry into the Guardian Bunker ends with a brush with the law.
An audio tape threatens to cause a rift between David and me as our investigation gets personal, and a discovery about the 2015 construction of the Manchester tram-line network takes a sinister turn.
In 2007 a burglar was caught inside the high-security Guardian Bunker while attempting to steal valuable equipment. Instead of finishing his sentence he was admitted into a Psychiatric Hospital and remains there still to this day. In a slightly ballsy move, I go undercover to talk to our most important lead yet, but what does he know and can he even be trusted?
1In 2004 there was a fire in Central Manchester, but not just any fire, this one took place inside a top-secret underground bunker and caused a city-wide blackout. But why was the Lead Fire Manger silenced immediately afterwards? And what did this have to do with my Grandad and Project Bläckfisk?
‘Do not open until 2025’ and a strange logo that said ‘Project Bläckfisk’. The only clues left on a mysterious box delivered to my grandad. My grandad, who died 10 years ago. I had to open it. Little did I know I would be opening Pandora’s Box.

Great little podcast. Uncovering the mysterious science experiments from the Cold War, underground in a major Northern English city. Although the story is short and not as weird, it feels quite a bit like a Red Valley in terms of the performances and ambience. Only 3hrs in total, so you can finish it in an afternoon. I hope to see more from these creators; they have a bright future.
