Watford earn a vital late point in their Premier League survival bid as Joao Pedro's headed equaliser keeps them clear of the bottom three and denies hosts Newcastle a much-needed win.
A former Newcastle student who was fined £100 for having a house party in Jesmond in October 2020 when there were restrictions says he would like his money back.
At the time Callum Harrison shared a house with eight people and although he admitted what he did was wrong, he said be believed the Prime Minister did not follow the rules either and should resign.
It comes as Downing Street apologised to Buckingham Palace for two staff parties in No 10 the night before Prince Philip's funeral.
Earlier in the week Mr Johnson admitted attending a drinks party in the Downing Street garden during lockdown on 20 May 2020.

Mr Harrison told BBC Newcastle: "The people who are setting the rules are supposed to be setting an example and can't criticise others - so should refund us all the money that they've taken.
"We all knew the rules and I'm not making excuses, I paid the fine, the few people who were there and got caught were a person living on his own and a girlfriend who was staying with us at the time."

It comes as Downing Street apologised to Buckingham Palace for two staff parties in No 10 the night before Prince Philip's funeral.
The two staff get-togethers, on 16 April last year, took place at a time when Covid restrictions banned indoor socialising.
