WELL HELLO...
Hello there, this here is Jem Roberts, The Daddy of THE UNRELATED FAMILY – The South West's sexiest, all-encompassing sketch comedy troupe. On something of a hiatus right now as I'm writing a book on radio comedy, Tim's off round the world, and so on. But only a sabbatical, and we'll keep you updated about all sorts of gigs and funny occasions in Bath and the Bristol area too. When not doing all that, I often attempt to perform solo stand-up and frankly sickening ukulele songs on my todd. Be a joy to pass the time for you some day...
So yes, it seems that I live in beautiful Bath – although I'm of pure Ludlow stock. As well as scraping the uke, I'm a comedy journalist and a videogames journalist since the age of 14. I also write stories for small folk (yes, like 98% of the English speaking world), and created the Osmondle the Frog fellow years back. May try and get the poor Prince published again some day.
OH BY THE WAY: I have a few online profiles for all sorts of projects, but this is my personal one, and I try and keep it just for people I really know and love – or to keep in touch with people that I talk to very regularly. Don't bother adding me on a whim, because if you're not talkative, then... Bub-bye!

I'd like to meet:

The Late Alistair Sim, he'd be lovely. Or a foxy rich orphan with no taste in men'd be just dandy.

Or just any of you lot out there, possibly, I don't know. Whether you're in the NE Somerset area or... anywhere else, and think we might not fight!

Bonzo Dog Band, Billy Bragg, OCS, The Divine Comedy, Paul McCartney, Pet Shop Boys, Zutons, Travis When They Were Good, Oasis, Gershwin, Porter, Berlin, Anka, Pulp, Cerys Matthews, George Harrison, Erasure, Billy Bragg again just for a laugh... Basically everything but modern R&B/Dance music, and the vast majority of 'metal'.
