"I like ambitious places" - Peter Mandelson on Manchester

Radcliffe and Maconie

Available for over a year

Manchester Metropolitan University Chancellor Peter Mandelson gives a surprise interview as part of the Manchester International Festival. He remembers hooking up the family radiogram to a loudspeaker to create an "early-stage iPhone", with his mum acting as the shuffle function. He's an Ed Sheeran fan, but he's staying quiet about what else is on his playlist today.
