Just watched John Bishop live on TV.

Unless I'm mistaken, he was wearing a black faced Chronospace, on an Ocean Racer strap with deployant.

Ok, the missus gave me grief and called me a sad w****r for repeatedly pausing rewinding and replaying, but did anyone else notice?

Of course I might be the only one to have watched the programme :-)

Looks distinctly like an ocean racer lurking under the left cuff. Can't seem to find a clear pic of him sporting the watch though.

A better actor than comedian IMHO. He, like David Walliams, does a lot of charity work too.


***STOP PRESS**

It may well have been a Chronospace you saw but he is definitely a Breitling man as he is sporting a black faced Airwolf Raven on an Ocean Racer here.

Another for the Celbs List......

It would have been the Airwolf, not a Chronospace. I thought it looked a little small.

Either way, if he can play football with it on he earns to much

He's a stand-up comedian from Liverpool, England. Been around for a few years now but only in the UK really. He's a funny fella (in my opinion) but he's like Marmite...you either love him or you hate him.

He did a 'week of Hell' triathlon over 5 days from Paris to London in aid of Children In Need, earlier this year. Cycled from Paris to Calais, rowed over the channel and ran from Dover to London. It raised over £3m for the charity.

Some people don't get him because of his Scouse accent but like I say....funny bloke!!
