Hundreds of tickets still available for Blackpool show featuring convicted stalker Alex Belfield and Katie Hopkins

Tickets can still be purchased for a show featuring convicted stalker and ex-BBC radio presenter Alex Belfield. The 42-year-old of Shaldon Close in Mapperley will be joined by Katie Hopkins in a Blackpool show titled 'Two Gobsh***s Live'.

Belfield had been convicted of stalking four victims including BBC broadcaster Jeremy Vine and Northampton BBC Radio's Bernie Keith. Mr Vine had described Belfield in court as "the Jimmy Savile of trolling".

Prosecutors told Nottingham Crown Court earlier this year that Belfield had used social media messages, videos and emails to cause serious alarm or distress to his victims after his contract with BBC Radio Leeds ended. He was granted bail and will be sentenced in September.
