11 Aug 2005 - Pete Cooper is English Heritage Jester.

Peterkin the Fool succeeds Kester the Jester as The English Heritage Jester.

As is fast becoming traditional with EH's competition, not everybody was happy with the outcome. Least of all fans of Kester the Jester who believe that he won the audience vote. As usual, the "Expert" Judges were no such thing and they were divided.

What is apparent is that the field was of a much higher quality than last years competition although, once again the terms of entry were so bizarrely unfavourable that there was only 2 genuine competitors.

However, EH now boast one of the countries most highly reputed jesters as their own.
