Year Of Birth: 1956
RNP Member Since: 1996
Show Title: Laughter, The Best Medicine
Favourite Song: All sorts, hence I’m a DJ

The show includes comedy sketches, impressions (still trying very hard), a telephone wind up (very daunting) and music of the five decades to suit the majority of the patients.

Impersonating somebody is very difficult as not only does one have to copy the style, but also the pitch of the voice of the subject. My favourite ones are: Frank Spencer, Nelson Mandela, Patrick Moore, the Daleks and Margaret Thatcher (don’t ask me why).

The telephone wind ups are all recorded, and the victims are usually friends and family. One of my uncles said that I should get a thump… and he really did so the next time I met him.
