Jon Bridges

Comedian, producer, and Listener columnist Jon Bridges debuted on TV screens in the early 90s with stints on sketch show Away Laughing, and short-lived drama Homeward Bound. He then joined cult show Ice TV for an extended run as co-presenter. Bridges has also produced comedy (7 Days) and cycling coverage, and written for kidult adventure series Secret Agent Men and The Amazing Extraordinary Friends.

We’d go out with a camera, Petra (Bagust), and Nathan (Rarere) and I, and we’d film stuff.... So it was quite new in that handycam filming way.... It caused a few raised eyebrows that we were putting such low-fi stuff on TV.
