...who used to present a quiz show in the late eighties or early nineties?

I think one of the characters in Upstart Crow rips him off.

Anybody know who I mean?

Earlier than Justin Lee Knobhead ( Grin) , posher than Noel Edmonds. Curlier than either of them, but you're in the right ballpark of slightly leonine looking men.

I think the character of Will Kemp in Upstart Crow is ripping off Ricky Gervais.

Rory! That's him.

Thank you. The brain itch was driving me mad! Smile

Yes! Wholesale.

And I'm thinking the one played by Steve Spiers is a send up of Rory (?)
