Hull City of Culture Monopoly board game released

A version of Monopoly featuring Hull landmarks has been released as part of the 2017 City of Culture celebrations.

The Humber Bridge, Ferens Art Gallery, Holy Trinity Church and Hull City Hall are among the sights that fill the square spaces on the board.

Six special playing pieces including a toad, a trawler and a Ferris wheel were chosen after a public vote.

Jean Bishop, 94, known as "Bee Lady", is recognised in a Community Chest card, which credits her charity work.

Makers of the board game said it was "a celebration of everything Hull - its rich past, jubilant present and vibrant future".
