Lucy Siegle has travelled across the country for our Ugly-Beautiful series, coming face to face with some beautifully monstrous examples of modern architecture.

This week Lucy travels to the 'New town' of Cumbernauld in Lanarkshire which has twice been voted the most dismal place to live in the whole of Scotland, and the shopping centre the ugliest building in the whole of the UK.

Despite the negative publicity, the town is still visited by architects from all over the world, looking for an example of the modernist dream.

What's it called?

The town is also famous for its dynamic motto: "What's it called? Cumbernauld."

So - we're asking you - can you come up with a truthful slogan for the town in which you live? A motto that really reflects your area?

The most entertaining slogans will be read out on The One Show. Please remember to add your name and location to your comment.
