    The event will be held on August 26 at the Rose ‘N’ Bowl, a pub in Stacksteads, Rossendale, and has attracted locals and those from further afield due to its wacky nature.

    It sees contestants wrestle in a pool of gravy for two minutes, with points scored for fancy dress, comedy effect, and entertainment, and raises money for the East Lancashire Hospice which supports people with life-limiting illnesses.

    Apparently they play noughts and crosses at the same time, here’s the first line taken from one of the main bouts, OXO;)
