Never mention Tin Machine to a room full of Bowie fans on The Jonathan Ross Show. Ian Moore did. It did not go down well. Soon after, he moved to France, and it’s been 21 years.

Ian Moore is a British comedian and author who is best known for his Follet Valley Mysteries crime series and memoirs, including À La Mod: My So-Called Tranquil Family Life in Rural France.

  • Performing stand-up in French with a catastrophically bad accent
  • Why Saturday night television makes him furious enough to be sent out of the room by his family
