ONE of Britain’s best loved comedians is returning to stand-up comedy with a tour that includes gigs in the North-East.
Peter Kay, the multi-award winning actor, writer, director, author and producer, will be playing to crowds in Newcastle in February.
His 2010 tour played to over 1.2 million people and still ranks with the Guinness Book of World Records as the biggest-selling comedy tour of all time.
The comic, 44, said: “I really miss it. I know how lucky I am to be making television series and have really loved these past few years working on Car Share but I miss doing stand-up.
“As terrifying as it is, when it works there’s nothing more fun and exciting.
“Plus, a lot has happened in the last eight years, with Trump, Twitter and my Nan getting her front bush trimmed at the age of 96. I can’t wait to get back up on stage.”
The tour is at Metro Radio Arena in Newcastle on February 11 and 12, 2019.
Tickets, £38.50, £49.50, £60 and £104 VIP, all with a £1.20 facility fee will go on sale at 10am on Sunday at metroradioarena.co.uk or by calling 0844-4936666.
