Jasper Carrott

One of my favourite jokes from jasper is the football match, he doesn't half take the mickey out of us brummies. Very funny man.
 
Just watched Jasper Carrott on the BBC One Show. Still very funny, and about to tour with fellow Brummie Bev Bevin (ELO), and other Brummiemusicians, including Tony Iommi. Should be agreat PR job for Birmingham. I understand that the tour will include Birmingham Town Hall.

Living in North Norfolk I hope to be able to see the show somewhere. Eddie

I had a Jasper Carrott cassette tape back in the day. I put it on while travelling in the car. After about 10 minutes, I was becoming dangerous, and faced with the choice of ejecting it or pulling in, I pulled in until it was finished.
