As for these 'celebrities' trying to prove that Wednesdays work, admit defeat, just admit defeat.

In principle i would agree with keeping as much of the Victorian Structure inplace as possible, but not when it impinges on the comfort & safety of others. Reverting back to the original flooring is mainly for visual effect...lets face it...you can see more of it now will all the open space, but in Victorian times not as many disabled people would have been using the Market Hall, so i think things need looking at in that light today. The idea should be to make shopping as enjoyable as possible, and after a while who spends much time looking at the flooring...other than those for whom it creates a problem! In the big scheme of things, its not the greatest problem with the Market Hall, but its obviously not been considered properly or if it has, it was decided aesthetic's over function!
As for the Celebrities, this has been a ludicrous idea, which has more to do with trying to save the face of certain Councillors during the "trial" period, than it has in trying to stimulate long term interest in the Market Hall!
