Who was/is he?

Didn't he have a long face?

No, you're thinking of the other one.

>No, you're thinking of the other one.

oh yeah.. thats him.. the long-faced get.

Well, we've established that the 90s weren't really his decade, judging from the wave of recollections of him I've triggered here...

Wasn't he the teenage standup whizkid who _nearly_ got a presenter job on "The Word"?

>Whatever happened to him?

Bloody hell, yes -- what *did* happen to him? No helpful suggestions, sorry, but I second your curiosity.

(btw, for those wondering who he is -- he's the son of John Langdon, Rory Bremner's longtime scriptwriter/editor. He was also the star Channel 4's 'Teenage Health Freak'. And was at one point Britain's second youngest stand-up or something.)

There was a documentary on him for kids TV in about 88 or 89. He really was billed as quite a find, but I think I was most impressed by the fact that he had a poster of Jerry Sadowitz on his wall.

For what its worth, I saw him live at Malcolm Hardee's tunnel club show at the Edinburgh Festival in 1989. A boy speaking a man's words on stage, and everyone in the audience looking at his mother in the front row.

Child stand up is just wrong.
