Museum deaths

Taken one or two calls/emails from people suggesting we should be investigating the deaths at the World Museum in Liverpool.

Three people have died there in the last few months. One fell, one was stabbed to death and the man who stabbed her fell and died while trying to escape.

You'd have to be a pretty helpless fan of detective novels to believe there was any problem at the museum.

The Museum has had the all-clear by Health and Safety and it's just sheer bad luck/coincidence that deaths have occured here.

Itt is stacked on several levels and there is a fairly dramatic plunge from the walkways and upper floors to the ground floor.

But someone wanting to throw themselves off somewhere high and kill themselves doesn't need to go the World Museum. Any motorway footbridge, tower block or high window would do.

I understand that some museum staff are to have counselling for the horrors they witnessed.

Watched the first half of Watford v Sheffield United with Harry last night. Torture. Things improved greatly with the inimitable Gordon Ramsey and Kitchen Nightmares. It's a Liverpool Restaurant next week and the trailer showed the staff giving Gordon as good as he gave.

I can't wait.

Does he play to the cameras or is he really the foul-mouthed swaggering despot we have grown to love?

I'm Alastair Machray, editor of the Liverpool Echo. I believe, I truly believe, it's Britain's best paper in Britain's best city. And I'm so proud to be here.

After 26 years is the business I'm happier than ever. Every morning I jump out of bed looking forward to work (well, mostly). Home? It's a war zone.
