Following on from the success of the 2024 Tour, what can the audience expect for 2025?

After the success of the 2024 tours, it’s more of the same in 2025. An irreverent and hopefully very funny wander through my life in football with some great guests and some strong opinions. Oh - and Bianca Westwood too.

Hosted by Bianca Westwood, is it great to share a 'stage' again?

Bianca and I have a love/hate relationship. I love her. She hates me. The Soccer Saturday chemistry was often explosive and sometimes still is.

Will there be any special guests joining you.. and can you say who?

We will be joined by the likes of Paul Merson, Phil Thompson and Charlie Nicolas who are all great story tellers in their own right. And Chris Kammy Kamara will be with us at at least one event.

How do you find touring the UK, is there content specific for different regions/football fans?

Its a joy to tour the UK and discover some true hidden gem theatres - the Victoria theatre in Halifax, the Kings Hall in Ilkley, the Town House in Hamilton, the New Theatre in Cardiff, the Regent in Christchurch, the Kings Theatre in Portsmouth and many more. There are so many wonderful, unique venues. Of course we tweek the shows content depending on where you are so it is never exactly the same show for any two nights.

Any towns on the tour you have never visited?

I am looking forward to seeing towns that I have never been to - Lancaster, Rhyl and Perth (I hope it coincides with a race meeting and/or a St Johnstone game)

What's your favourite part of the show?

My favourite parts of the show are the endings to each half and the audience reaction. I would give away too much if I told you why. You will just have to come and see.

After working on Sky TV and now presenting on TalkSport how do you find presenting on Radio to Television? and how does both differ to stage?

Life on tour is very different to Sky or Talksport. To actually be out there and meet people, hear the laughter and applause is wonderful if nerve racking. Of course a lot of people who text or phone the Breakfast Show have been to see us live and it is great to meet them in person.

Are you enjoying your role as president of Hartlepool United, do you get to watch many fixtures?

I am President and minority shareholder at Hartlepool United and amazingly at almost every show fellow Poolies turn-up. You can spot them easily. They are the ones with faces that clearly tell of long suffering misery. I watch them when I can at places like Solihull, Maidenhead, Woking, Southend, Yeovil and many more. So when I am not touring with Bianca, I tend to be touring with Hartlepool United.

Tell us in 3 words why fans should snap up a ticket for the show?

Why should fans by a ticket ? Because whether you call it 'Bee and Me' or has she does 'Dad and daughter', it is definitely ' Last Chance Saloon' These dates will almost certainly be the Full Time Whistle for tours for me!
