In the late 90’s, I appeared as a team captain on a Channel 5 panel show called, BRING ME THE HEAD OF LIGHT ENTERTAINMENT.

I’ve written before on this blog and I say in Eclipsed – that Tom has his mum to thank for where he currently finds himself in life – today heading back to LA for a few meets – as you do.

To Hong Kong then for a gig. I’ve been here many times before to play the fab comedy club out here but this gig is a little different…
