The best bingo callers from Northeastern Britain are competing this week to find out who is the best Bingo Caller in the country. The winner of the £250 jackpot will represent the North-East in the finals of the National Bingo Caller of the Year contest that will take place in November.

The Mecca Bingo in Hartlepool Marina will host the event in which the best bingo callers of the North-East will show their abilities and try to convince the jury that no one else can shout “legs 11” as they do.

Whoever is chosen as the Bingo Caller of the Year, will receive an all-expenses paid trip to Las Vegas and the opportunity to call a Bingo game at one of the big casinos in the gambling capital of the world.
