Next Friday will see the start of the Nottingham Comedy Festival with over 100 acts performing at venues across the city over ten days and bringing some much needed laughter to us all after a pretty rough time. 

To find out more about the festival we had a chat with director and co-founder Helen Stead, so tune in as we talk about the origins and history of the festival, the impact last year had and what's in store for 2021. Plus, find out how you can give stand up a go if.

If you want to know the full line up for the Nottingham Comedy Festival 2021 you can find it on the official website
