Memories of 'Wor Jackie'
Woodhorn Museum, QEII Country Park, Ashington, Northumberland, NE63 9YF
Join us for a talk on the legend - and Ashington lad - that was Jackie Milburn in celebration of what would have been his 100th birthday.
Hosted by John Gibson, award-winning sports editor for the Newcastle Evening Chronicle and long time journalist covering Newcastle United. A life-long friend, Gibson will share his memories of 'Wor Jackie' - from watching him play as a schoolboy to working alongside him in the Press Box and contributing to Milburn's 'This Is Your Life' programme in 1981. Limited free tickets available.
