A man in Manchester became trapped inside a classic red phone box on Deansgate while attempting to order a kebab, as the door slammed shut and locked behind him. The booth had no working phone, and despite removing a glass panel and trying to escape, he remained stuck for over an hour. Friends were unable to open the door and called firefighters, who eventually forced it open. The man exited safely and thanked the rescuers.
