Grand Opera House, York: An Evening with Aggers and Tuffers

Date: 14-Sep-18 to 14-Sep-18
Location: York / United Kingdom
Tuffers was the bad boy of English cricket in the 1990s, but the best spinner - left-arm or otherwise - as well. Known as The Cat because of his love of dressing-room naps and, rarely seen without a beer and a fag, Tufnell has always been something of a folk hero. Since retiring, he has carved out a successful TV career, appearing in I’m A Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here, The Jump, Strictly Come Dancing, and he is Matt Dawson’s opposing team captain in BBC’s long-running series A Question of Sport. This is a fascinating, entertaining, no-holds-barred evening and you can tweet Aggers with your own questions.

Date: 11-Oct-18 to 11-Oct-18
Location: United Kingdom
Ask West Ham United fans for their greatest memory and many will say that Saturday 10th May 1980 is the most famous date in the club’s history. It was on this day that The Hammers, who were then in the Second Division, defeated the mighty Arsenal in the FA Cup Final at Wembley Stadium. On a hot afternoon, a rare Trevor Brooking header was enough for John Lyall’s underdogs to see off The Gunners who had started the match as hot favourites.
