Janice Forsyth talks to comedian Jason Byrne, plus she finds out if holiday camp humour is as uncool as it used to be.
Best-selling comedian - ever - at Edinburgh's Fringe festival, Jason Byrne, reveals to Janice Forsyth how his childlike sense of fun and high octane lunacy never wanes - even in the face of adversity.
Hi-de-hi campers! Holiday park entertainment has long been viewed as naff by association with the likes of TV's fictional Maplin's and its hapless posse of Yellowcoat entertainers. So with the return of the 'staycation' we find out if holiday park humour is still as uncool as it used to be.
