One of the UK’s leading film critics, Mark Kermode, will be among those ‘coming home’ for Tynwald Day.
Mr Kermode, who has Manx roots, and his mother Audrey Kermode will join other guests at the ceremony on July the seventh.
This year’s celebrations will be marked by a strong sense of ‘home’, with many homecomers swelling the crowds at St John’s, including representatives from the North American Manx Association visiting the Island for the 2014 NAMA convention.
Mr Kermode and Tynwald president Clare Christian are patrons of this year’s Island of Culture celebrations.
