Biography
Impressionist and satirist who first came to public attention in 1985 when he had a novelty hit single, "N-N-Nineteen (Not Out)" under the name The Commentators (produced by John Sachs, pop triv fans!). The following year he was chosen to front the BBC comedy show Now, Something Else (which also provided Jeremy Hardy with his first big TV break) and since then he's kept a constant presence on our screens, currently in Channel 4's Bremner, Bird and Fortune.
