Ben Simmons is a talented man, not only does he have his own Radio Show "This is the show that goes like this" on Phoenix FM but he also writes and performs in pantomime and variety shows with his father Keith Simmons. He is an incredibly nice fella with so many anecdotes he has been collecting since he was literally 18 months old. His first job was for a famous TV commercial as a 10 year old which I want him to tell you about as it was something I never knew about him and he grew up with Variety and showbusiness in his bloodline. 

Ben is always great to catch up with and I’m proud to know him and his family, they are an important family in the history of Entertainment so welcome to Eyes & Teeth the water rats Ben Simmons

The night I became a Water Rat I was so proud to see a large attendance including a few ventriloquists including Roger De Courcey, John Bouchier & Alan Simmons.
Alan is a comedy performer who started in this business of show recording pop records, joining a very successful comedy duo with his brother Keith who performed on record TV shows and pantomimes and summer seasons for decades. They are known by and have worked with the best in the business and they would have had their TV Success after an offer of a series but Alan explains what happened when that was taken away.

Alan's brother Dennis was a ventriloquist but was taken far too young and after deciding to leave The Simmons Brothers he took up that vent act that he started years before the double act. Alan has wonderful stories to share including when he met his lovely Julia also a performer.
