Welcome to the World’s greatest variety show – Season 15 in Eyes & teeth when I talk to Gary Lovini.

Gary is a true showman and he had a full on career in the UK then moved to Florida, USA to start all over and he has made an astounding success out of it.

Gary talks About his early years in Talent Competitions, Butlins, inventing a new style of performing with a violin. The local talent shows spread across the midlands and then around the UK and then TV biggest TV Talent show where it went crazy for Gary.

Gary’s career went from Cabaret clubs to every major TV show on at the time in the late 1980’s from Des O Connor to Wogan, What’s My Line to Summertime Special and the Childrens Royal variety.

We also talk about our mutual friendship within the Grand Order of Water rats that we are proud members of.

From the QE2 Cunard ship to HM Queen Elizabeth 2 in person and the moment Gary blanked Englebert Humperdinck. He made up for it of course.

I once had dinner on LBC radio with Vanessa Mae who I guess was a mix of Classical Pop and made an impact in her style moving about like no other but that was in the 90’s and Gary was there first in the 1980’s. 

Welcome to the Show the incredible performer Gary Lovini
