ON June 15, 1996, an IRA bomb went off in Manchester. It went off outside Marks and Spencer on Corporation Street. Hundreds were injured. No-one died. Whoever did got away. Retired police officer Ian Mack, 60, filmed the devastation from a police van.

What makes this video authentic is the lack of commentary and music:

The money will provide half the cost of an ambitious redevelopment of the part of Manchester's city centre which was devasted by the explosion of an IRA bomb two years ago.
