Trivia:

Peter Peverley appears in this show paying his regular tribute to famous North East comedian Bobby Thompson, "The little Waster". So accurate is his portrayal of him, the Thompson family gave him Bobby's original clothes/costume to perform his act in, and he is seen wearing them at this concert.
