The gala event was in aid of The Not Forgotten Association, a cause that helps injured serving or ex-Armed Forces personnel.

It was staged by the owners of the Lyndene Hotel in Blackpool, where famous comedian Jimmy is doing his 2016 spring season, appearing there every Wednesday and Saturday until the end of May.

Jimmy said: “A big mention must also go to Tower Top Entertainments who helped produce the show and organise the line-up for it.”
