About Celebrity Phone Box

'EXTRAORDINARY' (Daily Mirror). James Phelan - the award winning trickster most famous for jamming the BBC Switchboard after he correctly predicted the lottery - has built his career on an ability to blag his way into showbiz parties. Now, with an iPhone full of celebrities' phone numbers (most of whom have no memory of who he is), he's decided to ring them all - one-by-one. If you found a celebrity's phone number, what would you do - would you call it? © James Phelan with Madison & Monroe MMXX Hosted on Acast.

   Lee Nelson / Simon Brodkin - "Sepp Blatter got me a criminal record"

   I talk to fellow trickster, Britains Greatest Hoaxer and stand up comedian Simon Brodkin - originally known for Lee Nelson's Well Good Show on BBC Three, he's now infamous for handing Theresa May a P45 during her flagship speech, showering Sepp Blatter with bank notes (that he made sure I knew were real), painting BHS Destroyer on the side of Phillip Green's yacht and jumping on stage with Kanye. He's put that all to one-side for now though, and is presenting himself totally raw. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy (https://acast.com/privacy) for more information.
