Books by The Beach Brings Big Names to Scarborough This Weekend

BBC Security Correspondent Frank Gardner, Yorkshire Vet Julian Norton and Bake Off winner David Atherton are just some of the authors appearing at this weekends Books by the Beach festival in Scarborough.

The literary festival has been running for the past 15 years and organiser Heather French says while it's always ben a little challenging to get the big authors to visit the Yorkshire Coast, arranging this year's festival has been particularly challenging given the uncertainty around the lockdowns.

Despite the challenges the programme for this weekend's festival is packed full of big names from TV, Journalism and the arts.

Heather French says the line-up  is bringing people to the town from around the country.
