There was a sell-out audience at Lowdham Book Festival in June 2024, followed by another fantastic turn-out for Marcus' one-man multi-media show at Newark Book Festival in July 2024. Thanks for all the lovely comments afterwards!
Afterwards, audience members queued-up to have copies signed by Marcus and talk about their Cloughie memories. Part of the proceeds of Brian Clough The Lost Tapes is going to the NSPCC and Nottinghamshire Hospice.
The Green Jumper pod is on tour in 2024. The first of a series of special events was held on Friday, 8th March 2024 in Nottingham. It raised nearly £1,000 for the St George's Centre in the Netherfield area. Marcus was in conversation with event host Neil Kendrick and the evening included an entertaining audience Q&A.
Audience feedback included:
"It was a thoroughly enjoyable evening,"
"A lovely combination of humour, tributes, stories and historic facts."
"A fabulous night. Great Clough stories I hadn't heard before."
Previously, Marcus presented a cheque for £7,500 to the children's cancer ward at Nottingham's Queen's Medical Centre on behalf of the Brian Clough Memorial Fund.
