BBC north-west’s late night phone in presenter returns to The Met with his one-man show.

Witty, acerbic, argumentative and occasionally just down right rude, he’ll chat about life, the Universe and the world of wireless. After more than thirty years of ‘beating his gums’ for money every day, he has one or two things to say.

With a reputation for telling it like it is, sometimes strident, sometimes caring and often funny, he has picked up a few awards along the way, he’s also gathered a similar number of death threats; he’s not sure of which he is most proud!

Two hours of whatever comes into his head falls out of his mouth just for the fun of it.
