The city of Hull has been blighted by a gloomy history. Regularly topping lists of Britain’s worst places to live, it comes with a reputation that is at best questionable. In two years time, it has the chance to rise from the shadows, disprove the doubters, and transform itself in the eyes of the country and the world. In 2017, it will become the official UK city of culture, which will see a lucrative programme of international arts events invade the city across 365 days.
