Jason Manford

Jason Manford is a very funny comic who seemed to appear from nowhere. All of a sudden he was on TV all the time. He was a team captain on 8 out of 10 cats, Did - Live at the Apollo, Odd one in, Would I lie to you. Then he was offered the great job of presenting The One Show alongside Alex Jones. Unfortunately something that he did in his private life meant he had to give up the One Show gig. I was gutted by that. What he did was silly but He didn't kill anyone.

However, Jason's career hasn't been hurt. He recently presented an excellent TV program that was like X factor for comics. "Show me the Funny" Where each week this group of up and coming comedians had to do a set in front of a different audience. There were 3 experienced judges - Alan Davies, Kate Copstick and a guest judge. They would pick a bottom 3 and 1 person would be 'evicted' at the end of each show.

 Jason also performed Opera on Born to shine and won the entire competition.

I will also be seeing Jason perform live in November here at Derby Assembly Rooms. I am very excited about that and I hope I get to see him at the Stage door after for a phot op ;)

I wrote to Jason at the end of March this year and received a reply back today 17th September. That is 24 weeks. I am happy with that. I sent 4 photos that I printed myself and Jason signed all 4 He also sent a lovely little letter which made my day.

Thanks Jason.
