Does anyone know of a way to get tickets any cheaper than the advertised £16.50 :eek:

Carers/disabled/students etc doesn't seem to give much of a reduction.... so any help/advice would be appreciated....thanks :-)

    See if a disabled person wants to go then go as their carer.

    That way you go half on the ticket as they'll get a free carers ticket.
    just passing through.... Nothing to see....

    We went last Tuesday and it was very good. Just letting you know there is a photo opportunity. You can have your photo took behind the bar at the Rovers (inside set). You can purchase the photos at £7.5o for 1, £10 for 2 or have the photo put on a memory stick for £8.50. We chose the memory stick (3 of us) because after you have had it took (we were first) you move to other side of the bar. When we went to view the pics we noticed people were on in the background. My daughter edited them out and I got them done at Max Spielman. The tour is good and I felt worth the price. After you have been on the inside tour you can wander the street as long as you like taking pictures etc, don't forget to go up the backstreet!. If you go don't go too late. We were 7.10pm, it was just going dark as we left at 8.30pm.

    You have to ring them to book the tickets.
    I asked about it on the TM Facebook page.
