Scarred For Life

It’s the first episode of series 5 and our guest is comedian Ross Noble!
Ross first burst onto the scene in the 1990s, quickly becoming a cult favourite thanks to his wildly unpredictable stand-up style, before going on to become a familiar face on TV through shows like Have I Got News For You, QI, Top Gear and his own series such as Ross Noble Goes Global and Freewheeling.
Aside from his comedy career, Ross has also branched out into acting, having earned himself an Olivier Award nomination for his role as Igor in the Mel Brook’s musical Young Frankenstein.
