A HOSPICE stages its own version of It's a Knockout tomorrow.

The St Teresa's Hospice Knockout 2000 is the biggest competition yet, with teams from all over Darlington competing in the challenge.

The event, sponsored by Darlington Operatic Society, takes place at Darlington Rugby Club in Grange Road.

The morning session starts at 10am and the afternoon session at 1.40pm.

Hospice director Jane Bradshaw said: "Knockout 2000 will be a spectacular day of fun.

"Teams from local business and clubs have entered and all have been sponsored to raise hundreds of pounds each for the hospice. Everyone is invited to come along and watch the fun, entry is free."
