Summary
Join Emily and Raymond in London’s Regent’s Park with the performer, TV presenter and turkey farmer JB Gill!
JB shot to fame as one quarter of the boyband JLS. They were runners up on The X Factor in 2008, and then went on to become one of the UK’s most-successful boybands. Their debut album went 4 x Platinum, they won two BRIT awards and five MOBO awards and achieved five number one singles.
But musician isn’t the only string to JB’s bow - he’s very much a polymath and there’s no end to his knowledge and curiosity about the world. JB tells us about his early years in Antigua, what happened when he moved to South London and how he discovered all his various talents…
JB and his family have a Mastiff called Nala - she was at home on the farm this day as we met JB on a day that he was co-hosting The One Show… but we find out the story of how they adopted her, thanks to Paul O’Grady!
