Snooker legends Jimmy White and Ken Doherty will face each other in a match at a Kent snooker club.

Punters will be cueing up to see the two in action at Frames in Northdown Road in Cliftonville on September 4 and will also get a chance to play them.

Frames opened in November 2019 in the former premises of Northdown Snooker Club, which shut in May of that year after eight years.

Taken over by Callum Tydeman - whose family has two decades of experience running snooker clubs and pubs - the building was completely renovated to offer 14 snooker tables and five match pool tables as well as darts lanes.

Mr Tydeman also runs events at the venue, including quiz nights, and screens live sports.

He said: "Snooker legend Jimmy White and former world champion Ken Doherty played last year against each other in the World Senior Snooker final.

"They are both coming to Frames for a rematch.

"Along with Jimmy and Ken we also have Sky Sports walk-on girl Jade Slusarczyk, MC Colin Phillips and a professional referee.

"Jimmy and Ken will also be playing pool with some of our customers.

"They have both previously visited us separately and both were fantastic evenings."

There will be a buffet, raffles and auction with snooker memorabilia and prizes up for grabs.

Customers will have the chance to get their cues and customers cases signed, too.

The event is on September 4 from 6pm until late.

Ken Doherty won the World Snooker Championship in 1997 while Jimmy White was victorious in the UK Championship in 1992 and the Masters in 1984.

Tickets are still available either by popping into Frames or calling the club directly on 01843 231471.
