On tour autumn 2008
Jeremy's live show could be called an extravaganza were it not for the fact that nothing happens. He comes on, talks for a while and then goes off again. He doesn't walk about. He doesn't even take the microphone out of the stand. In fact "show" is a bit of an overstatement. But he does say quite a lot, most of it coherent. And he means well, which is the main thing.

Jeremy’s perhaps best remembered as a younger man, but there is nothing he can do about that now. Still alive and able to speak for lengthy periods, this will not be so much a one-man show as an under-staffed cavalcade.

New book out, spring 2009
Watch out for Jeremy's new book, to be published by Ebury Press in spring 2009. It's part family memoir, part enquiry into the world of genealogy and part comic adventure.

Comedians often get stuck looking for new material, but only Jeremy would get himself shot at... well done. Mark Steel
