Not Quite Light - Tales From The Half light..‪.‬ Simon Buckley, artist, photographer

In this episode I spend dawn with those that feed us. I travel the city centre streets of Manchester with Dave, a milkman with Creamline dairies. I take in the smells and sounds of the wholesale market at Openshaw with Lucy Noone and her dad Mike, who run R Noone and Son, supplying fruit and vegetables to cafes and restaurants across the North West. And I watch fresh bread being made at the Trove bakery in Levenshulme with Alan, the father of Kate who runs the business with her partner Marcus.

I visit Dartmoor during a hurricane, and talk to Manchester artist Claire Riley about working at dawn in the city...

This episode is inspired by the project "You Live With Us, We Live You", commissioned by 5 Plus Architects, where I explored buildings in their reality as opposed to the CGI fantasy.
I chat to one of the directors, Jon Matthews, overlooking Manchester at dawn from the rooftop of The Hive building, I talk to whistling Wayne, the security guard there, and I read an extract from the recently published book of the work.
