Finally, after many decades… a reason to go to Liverpool. There’s to be a major Ken Dodd exhibition, at the Museum of Liverpool. Opens on 9th September 2023, and runs until 3rd March 2024. Could be a tickle-some treat to liven up one of those grey weeks after Christmas / New Year. Tickets £5, for what sounds like a huge exhibition. Booking now.

An AI knows who Ken Dodd was and what he looked like. What a day to be alive… Thankfully, it can’t yet write the jokes.
