John Shuttleworth

John Shuttleworth hits the road for his latest tour, following appearances on Celebrity Antiques Roadshow, Pointless, and the second series of Radio 4's John Shuttleworth's Lounge Music.

A recent health scare (well, a mild bout of Athletes Foot) has made "Sheffield's finest singer/songwriter" (The Times) focus on his mortality, and the many things he needs to do before the inevitable move into a hospice. Can sole agent, Ken Worthington pull out the stops and make John a star before his retirement? As befits a man living on borrowed time – John considers Life's major issues: like the excitement he felt when sucking his first mint: "It gave my tongue activity, as the mint's flavours bore into me, turning my grey world azure blue – I remember my first Polo, do you?"
