“Seeing the genius (America’s Got Talent winner and ventriloquist) Paul Zerdin perform on your fantastic outdoor stage was perfect too,” the Tenable host added.

Butlin’s, Skegness, re-opened from the coronavirus lockdown on July 24.

The outdoor stage was among the features added to the site as a result of the pandemic, with it designed to provide a space for entertainment while also meeting social distancing requirements.

Chris Baron, the resort director, said it offered a ‘festival atmosphere’, when he spoke to the Standard last month.

Since then, indoor, live entertainment has returned to Butlin’s, having re-started on August 17.
