Bath, Bristol or London.

Didn't mind Birmingham... Exeter is nice but not great, and Plymouth is the pits. Don't actually think I've been to any others... oh no, Reading. Yeah... that's... not great. Edit: oh and Leeds. That was alright.

London and Birmingham are my faves.

Leeds is awesome for shopping. Liverpol has a generally really nice vibe and it's super picture-esque. Bournemouth and Portsmouth are beautiful scenery/holiday places.

I'm going to Bristol soon (not been before) and I've heard good things about it.

I found Edinburgh and Manchester overrated.

Bristol is amazing, especially on summer. By far the best city in UK.

Brighton, Bournemouth, Portsmouth but not Southampton? They wont like that down there.

About ten years ago I had a job that took me all over the UK and Ireland. I didnt realise how beautiful this country was until then so I like most of the cities listed.

Um... Brighton, Nottingham, Sheffield, Birmingham (yes, really) and Glasgow (yes, really), maybe?

Belfast, Edinburgh, Bristol and Manchester all seem nice but I've never spent much time in any of them. Guess I'd have to give some credit to London too.

I don't know why but I assumed Southampton wasn't as big/popular? It's somewhere I am planning on going next year too though.

Yes @ Glasgow, it's a little trashy in parts (where isn't?) but it's actually really nice/friendly and the shopping area is great

London/Glasgow

I've been to Edinburgh but I'm not a huge fan.

I've been to Newcastle but only really to the Metro centre. I love Sunderland though. I've been to York and Brighton, but can't really remember them.

Never been to Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds, Portsmouth, Bournemouth, Sheffield, Liverpool, Bristol, Cardiff or Oxford.

Bristol, Edinburgh and York are the nicest of those I'd say but London is a completely different animal to any other UK city which I'm never sure if I love or hate

Bournemouth is a town as well

Liverpool and London.

Liverpool, may sound silly but I love customer service there! Like the people in the shops ask you how you are etc that's rare these days!

& London because it's London, amazing city.
