If you love unbelievable stories and comedy gold, you've come to the right place. Odd News: In Lieu Of Lair In this edition of Odd News, we travel to England to explore a bizarre architectural spot. And we wonder if it might be of some use to a certain well-known villain. In Lieu Of Lair, we'll explore the bizarre-but-true renovation of a historic subterranean space in the United Kingdom. It's an unlikely remodel with a spectacular, if tiny, new purpose. It may be the most unusual space you hear about all year.
