Currently reading Peter Kay’s autobiography and was shocked and happily surprised to see my cousin’s name in there, was then even more shocked to learn he had a decent part in Britain’s Got the Pop Factor… and Possibly a New Celebrity Jesus Christ Soapstar Superstar Strictly on Ice as one of the contestants and i’m just finding out about it now 15+ years later.
We were pretty close as kids but drifted apart as we got older and he moved to London to pursue the business called Show.
Spent a while on YT watching clips of his scenes the other night with a big smile on my face.
In the same close across the road from where I shook Jeremy’s child hand was a chap called Tommy who was a nick kamen look a like he was dating sinita for some time. She used to drive up the cul de sac in a convertible mini which was a rare entity back then. We used to surround the car on our bikes.
I used to work with Beadle’s son’s girlfriend…I’ve also shared a joint with Matthew Kelly’s daughter and had a piss next to Henry Kelly. All I need now is a tenuous connection to Sarah Kennedy and I’ll be well Game For A Laugh.
