Northern News is BACK with a brand new series, and this time Amy and Ian are welcoming back some of their favourite guest correspondents to join them IN'T STUDIO. Kicking off the series is brilliant comedian and pal, Stevie Martin!

Headlines this week include a terrible tattoo made even worse, and a very interesting (read: potentially inappropriate) auntie/nephew relationship.

Stevie continues touring her incredible show Clout this Spring. For tickets and information head to steviemartin.com

Ian is bringing his Edinburgh Comedy Award nominated show Foot Spa Half Empty to London's Soho Theatre from 28 April - 1 May. For tickets head to sohotheatre.com.

And we'll be heading up t'North to record a live edition of the pod at Crossed Wires Podcast Festival on Saturday 4 July 2026! For tickets head to crossedwires.live.
