Howard Davidson

Howard has worked in television for 20 years, contributing to some of the most ridiculous (and therefore fantastic) shows ever to air, including:

- Jim Davidson’s Generation Game: like thinking you’ve got a place at Cambridge and then discovering it’s actually Anglia Poly. This did not happen to me.
- Challenge Anneka: driving Britain's most famous backside to some of the worst quality building projects you could hope to see
- Undercover Dads: where dads did a Mrs Doubtfire and dressed up as women so they could spy on their kids and “get to know them better”. This really happened.
- Blank Screen: a show featuring only a blank screen
- The Drop Dead Show: where three men took part in a speed-pooing contest to raise awareness of colon cancer. Hosted by Davina McCall.
- Something For The Weekend: re-uniting women with the men who took their virginity. Stay classy.
- Dummy Dates: three men go on dates with a ‘difficult’ mannequin so a watching single lady can decide which of them she likes the most. Again, this really happened.
- Big Cook Little Cook: a show about a tall ginger man transformed by magic into a tiny mini chef who flies around on a wooden spoon, and his mate, a smaller man, also a chef, who, because he remains life-size, looks massive in comparison

Realising that he had achieved pretty much everything there was to achieve across his extraordinary career in television (apart from awards, security and job satisfaction) and inspired by 2012 and the Olympic motto (harder, harder, harder), he set about returning to his writing roots, recording 100 shows of a silly podcast called I Am Idiot, and authoring two books, Fifty Shades of Gravy: The Cookbook and Like Your Friends: The Facebook Personality Bible. He is married, has two children, and is available for freelance work, and as a gun for hire on quiz nights in the South East.
