- **Event Description**: The North East Comedy Hall Of Fame

Like the Oscars but if it was a laugh and nobody got punched.
Felt Nowt presents a very special evening where the legends of North East comedy come together for the first of what we plan to make an annual event, The North East Comedy Hall Of Fame.

From huge stars of today to legends of yesterday, from household names to alternative trailblazers, we will be honouring just some of those who make the region special.
With special performances, surprise guests, a live band and lots more, we’ll be donning our best suits and fancy dresses to give much deserved awards to those that paved the way.

The first inductees announced are: Simon and Chris Donald
 We are so proud to honour the two brothers who revolutionised comedy, not just in this region but also nationwide, when, alongside their friend, the late Jim Brownlow, they came up with VIZ Comic from their teenage Jesmond home.

Sid The Sexist, Biffa Bacon, Billy The Fish and many more came from their pens and minds and became a publishing phenomenon.

More than that though, they can lay claim to have invented North East alternative comedy, taking it in a somewhat more vulgar and way more silly direction than its London counterpart.

We reached out to Simon for a quote.

“I’d like to say I’m deeply honoured, and indeed I would if I actually was.”

We should have asked Chris.

We’ll be naming our hosts and all the inductees and guests throughout the year, keep your eyes peeled and follow felt Nowt on social media.
