Factory, mine and mill. Industry, toil and grime. Its manufacturing
roots mean we still see the North of England as a hardworking
place. But, more than possibly anywhere else, the North has always
known how to get dressed up, take itself out on the town and have a
good time. After all, working and playing hard is its specialty,
and Stuart Maconie is in search of what, exactly, this entails what
it tells us about the North today. Following tip offs and rumour,
Stuart takes trip to forgotten corners and locals' haunts. From the
tapas bars of Halifax to the caravan parks of Berwick Upon Tweed,
from a Westhoughton bowling green to Manchester's curry mile, via
dog tracks and art galleries, dance floors and high fells, Stuart
compares the new and old North, with some surprising results. The
Pie at Night could be seen as a companion to the bestselling Pies
and Prejudice, but it is not a sequel. After all, this is a new
decade and the North is changing faster than ever. This is a
revealing and digressive journey and a State of the North address,
delivered from barstool, terrace, dress circle and hillside.
