Manc 51: John Thomson - The Actor Whose Feet Don't Get Cold

“One bit of advice I could give to anyone is don't be a one-trick pony.” Manchester’s treasure, comedian, actor, voice-over artist, musician and magician, John Thomson returns to close Season Two after opening Season One to give his own unique perspective of a year of not being a one-trick pony in a year when we all learned to adapt. Regaling Lisa and her mum, Carol, this week’s special guest - and a secret JT super fan - with stories from filming The Masked Singer, “This Time” with Alan Partridge’s, Midsummer Murders and Bargain Loving Brits, John brings hilarity, heart and a lot of joy.
