"Ay up me duck!"

Mark Steel returns with the 12th series of his award winning show that travels around the country visiting towns that have nothing in common but their uniqueness.

After thoroughly researching each town, he writes and performs a bespoke evening of comedy for a local audience.

Mark is kicking off with a visit to Nottingham in the East Midlands.

It's a contrarian city, full of heroes, rebels, caves and lovers of mushy peas.

He learns about local legends, Robin Hood, Lord Byron, DH Lawrence, Brian Clough, and the most famous of all, Frank the xylophone player.

Plus the history of the Luddites, the cheese riots and visits three pubs that are all the oldest in the country.

Later in this series, Mark is off to the Isles of Scilly, Tring, Salisbury, Newport and Paris.

Written and performed by Mark Steel.

Additional material by Pete Sinclair.

Producer: Carl Cooper

A 蘑菇短视频 Studios production for 蘑菇短视频 Radio 4, first broadcast in August 2022.
