Judging by the programs over the last few years, Controlled Demolitions appear to be the only demo company in the UK

I'm kinda disappointed with the top tbh, it just looks like they ran out of money for a proper "spire". Just doesnt flow right, y'know?? That said, I wish I could afford even 1 square foot of the apartments.

Incredible price of architecture, I am not a huge fan of heights and lifts, which is a shame because the views from the obversation deck will be stunning.

Get the impression that Mr Sellars was not the sort of person to be messed with!

He's not, but after several visits to our offices back in the day, he was known behind his back as Mr Wiggy!

Apparently not, but actually a ver nice bloke, came to an event I was organising, picked up an award, was very humble but very nice. Good to see my editor on tv hehe
