Comedians Ian Smith (The News Quiz, The Now Show, Popatron) and Amy Gledhill (Late Night Mash, Harry Hill’s Clubnite, The Jonathan Ross Show, Guessable) present a very special live edition of their comedy podcast NORTHERN NEWS at the London Podcast Festival.

Two Northerners living in London, Ian and Amy are missing out on the juicy stories from their hometowns. Join them as they scour the local rags of the North to find the stories you didn’t know you needed to know.

Who’s tipped to win big at the World Gravy Wrestling Championships? Is there a pig in Goole that needs coaxing off a mini-roundabout with crisps? Amy and Ian get the scoop on the hottest, creepiest, and downright peculiar news stories from the North.

The podcast will last up to 90 minutes, without an interval.
