    From New Zealand, spent 4 months in Wigan 25 years ago and never forgot it. Wonderful place, wonderful people. Can't wait to go back.

      What bad things? Lived there my whole life. Its pretty safe, there are certain places you would be a little mindful about at night such as graveyard in town centre but it's fine. People in wigan are quite old fashioned it's never really moved on but that is changing.

    Does the bearded man have a typical Wigan accent? I've never heard this accent before, it's quite interesting.

      Never a more true word said than, this above comment.
      I Fully agree, Wigan had always some attraction for all ages. Whether day time shopping , Haigh Hall, Wigan Mesnes Park or the Swimming Baths, Rugby or Football just to name a few.
      It has always been the place for the Night Life, King Street and the many choices of Night Clubs ,one to suit everyone. You actually would get People from other towns to come to visit Wigan for one reason or the other like the shopping, Market Hall, The Galleries Market gate plus all the other independent shops.
      Wigan Council Should Hold their Heads in shame, to see what it has now become, in 2024 ?
      Depressing Hove,l with no attractions, no interest whatsoever just bland.
      Beggers & Homeless the smell of cannabis, does not go unnoticed on the streets and outside the shops ?
      Years ago you would hear people saying how proud they was of Wigan and what it had going for itself.
      Please don't think it's the sign of the times, because you can still attend other Towns and find them bustling?
      There's nothing now to interest anybody to come into Wigan, it is depressing and unwelcoming.
      On the whole, what has Wigan become? Ghost Town and unwelcoming at that what a shame?

    Wigan council was desperate to shut down Wigan Casino, now it's their biggest cultural asset, which they love to milk. Rebuild the Casino!.
