I went to the opening exhibition and quite enjoyed it. I did think it was crazy that it was only meant to be on for 1 year though. It was such a massive project it would have been extremely difficult to turn a profit in such a short time. For years they didn’t know what to do with it afterwards – now it’s a successful concert and exhibition venue.

For James Bond fans, the Dome features in the fantastic pre-title sequence of The World Is Not Enough.
