Hi John
 
I thought it came from the Harry Enfield "special" - Norbert Smith - A Life. The hour-long tribute to Norbert covered his film roles including 'Rebel Without A Tie' & 'It's Grim Up North'

Subject: [KLF] Where does the expression "It's Grim Up North" come from?

Simple question.  Google and wiki turn up KLF references, but what about eariler?  Where does it come from?  When was the earliest use of the phrase?
