Or in multiple posts, half of which begin with “I can’t believe…"
(bonus points if a couple of them were posted that very day).
I went to Manchester a huge university in the Northern English city. Lots of famous real life alumni, the joke was Manchester University invented the computer and the atom (due to alumni Alan Turing, Neils Bohr and Cavendish, who all did ground breaking research there) whereas UMIST, the neighboring technical university, invent Vimto (a soft drink).
Not many fictional ones, fiction set in Manchester tends to center on the grim working class life, not the university. But IIRC James McAvoy’s character in Shameless (the original British one set in Manchester) went to medical school there before dropping out ?
