00:00 Hello, I am here with Charlie who is a digital reporter at Bristol World and

00:06 we're going to be discussing the top five news stories in the city this week.

00:10 So Charlie, can you tell us what is the top news story in Bristol this week?

00:16 So our top story this week is that the reopening of We the Curious has been

00:21 delayed again. So bosses say they are disappointed that they are unable to

00:27 open the Science Centre. Thank you Charlie. So shall we move on to our

00:32 second top story in the week? Tell me a little bit about that.

00:38 So our second top story is that roadworks are due to start in March on a

00:44 major city centre road in a year-long project to upgrade pavements and cycling

00:49 lanes. So Park Row and three other streets will be made safer and more

00:54 pleasant. So temporary bike lanes were installed along the road during the

00:59 Covid-19 pandemic using plastic bollards and the council plans on upgrading

01:04 these bike lanes as well as pedestrian crossings and traffic signals and

01:08 creating loading bays and disabled parking bays too.

01:11 Thank you Charlie. So shall we move on to our third top story this week? Tell me a

01:19 little bit about that story. So our third top story this week is that a new

01:24 immersive prison cocktail experience is coming to Bristol. It's called Alcotraz

01:30 and it's been dubbed the notorious bar behind bars and that will be opening on

01:35 All Saints Street on January the 26th and the idea for this is that partygoers

01:42 will have to complete tasks, wear orange jumpsuits and enjoy cocktails. That

01:48 sounds really exciting, a nice one for the city for this year then. Shall we

01:53 move on to our fourth top story in the city this week? So our fourth top story

02:00 is that a long-running butcher in Bristol has announced plans to retire. So

02:06 Mike Dalton who runs MJ Butchers on Gloucester Road, he's ran that since 1990.

02:15 Thank You Charlie. So shall we move on to our fifth and final top story in

02:22 Bristol this week? Tell me a little bit about that. So our final story is that a

02:26 new restaurant with a shisha garden has opened in Bristol and that is called

02:32 Clifton Palms just off of St. Paul's Road in Clifton and that's been opened by a

02:38 group of six former school friends including Farooq Sadiq. Yeah I think

02:43 there's lots of different flavours that they do so they provide all the

02:46 equipment for it and they do have a shisha barman as well. Oh well that's an

02:52 exciting one for a small business in Bristol then. So that is everybody up to

02:57 date with our top five news stories in the city this week. Whatever you're up to

03:02 have a great day.
