BIO

Brian Nankervis stormed the set of “Hey Hey, It’s Saturday” in 1986 with the character of Raymond J Bartholemeuz.

He has since continued to perform his verse on TV, radio, with bands, in theatres, comedy venues and schools. Raymond has published a book of poems “Too many Crayfish Not Enough Brains” (McPhee Cribble, Penguin).

His poems are hilarious, passionate, satirical and sometimes unexpectedly poignant. He writes about lost love, new love, broken hearts and spas. Politics, sport, religion and the baths. Lady Di, Bart Simpson, school bullies and Uncle Eric the dentist from hell.
