Former Premium Bonds Tower felled in controlled implosion.
The former home of the original Ernie machine, which generated prize-winning Premium Bond numbers, has been demolished in Blackpool.
The building’s main tower, seen when heading towards the seaside town, was brought down with explosives.
The machine, the latest version of which remains in Blackpool, was invented by one of the original Bletchley Park code breakers in 1956.
