    Dad has been on TV a few times, mostly on comedy programmes cos he's a writer/comedian... And also in a documentary-type-thing called 'Holy Flying Circus' about controversy surrounding Life of Brian
    Dad's friend plays the dad in Outnumbered (who is also on Mock the Week, has been on QI, etc)

    When the Beijing olympics was on (the first day) I was doing some athletics summer course and Newsnight came to film us, I'm in this one action shot looking awful

    no, not really.... Dad's mostly on radio these days anyway. Hugh Dennis and him are the co-hosts of this radio show on BBC Four.... That's mostly how I know him (hugh dennis, not dad... duh.) They met at Cambridge and did Footlights... QED.

    My dad was on an educational programme once back in the 70s and one of my sister's mates was on a TV makeover show in the early 00s. Someone who I used to live by was on Jeremy Kyle, but I hardly know her.

    Have you met John Holmes? If so how did you know? He is of course invisible to the naked eye.
