Following a sell-out UK tour of his 2018 live show Back To The Studio, which went on to be broadcast on BBC Three, the frustrated News Reporter Jonathan Pie, whose videos have been seen across the world, has announced a new 37-date nationwide tour for autumn: The Fake News Tour.

If no news is good news, then good news is fake news. In The Fake News Tour, Jonathan Pie returns to the road once more to berate the people in power - and the journalists apparently holding them to account.

The new UK tour will visit major venues across the country.
