About Me |
|
| I am a comedian and writer. In the 1990s I worked with Stewart Lee on such shows as "Fist of Fun" and "This Morning With Richard Not Judy". I wrote the Sky 1 series "Time Gentlemen Please" with Al Murray the Pub Landlord. I am currently working as a stand up comedian and appearing on such radio shows as "Banter" and "That Was Then, This Is Now". If you have satellite TV you can catch me interviewing poker players and poker playing celebrities on "Heads Up With Richard Herring". You can also hear me reviewing the newspapers on the Andrew Collings show on 6Music every Saturday at about 5pm( Click here for details or to listen again )
