'Does your team have what it takes to escape?' we were asked as we decided to take on one of Greater Manchester's most popular escape rooms.
Looking round at our team of two mums and three teens, I wasn't exactly sure. Some of us had done a couple of such challenges before, others not at all.
Our room of choice was Kidnapped at Adrenaline Escape in Atherton, Wigan - one of three centres the company owns, along with sites at The Trafford Centre and in Wigan town centre.
