This is quickly becoming my favourite night of the month – Murder Inc are bloomin' hilarious 👇
Last month’s Murder Inc show at Thread was STRANGE, but then it was a murder-mystery set in a fairy tale, so all’s well that ends well 🧚‍♂️ Next week Murder Inc return to Stockport and this time they’re taking us to the races for Slaydies Day. 🏇 We can’t wait! #Stockport

It is 2025, and Stockport Council appears to have removed a pedestrian crossing and added guard rail like it's 1965.
