Jon Holmes Biography

Jon Holmes is one of the most popular and richest Writer who was born on April 24, 1973 in Stratford-upon-Avon, England, United Kingdom.

After graduation, Holmes’s first foray into BBC radio comedy was for BBC Radio 4 with his debut comedy series Grievous Bodily Radio in 1997. He also had a show on Power FM on Sunday nights. The Jon & Andy Show (with Andy Hurst), which Holmes presented during 1998–2000, won him a gold Sony Radio Academy Award for entertainment. This was where Holmes began to acquire his reputation for controversy with on air interactive listener games such as ‘I’m Standing On…’ (a time trial in which listeners were encouraged to stand on their neighbour’s car or wheelie bin, etc. and shout “I’m Standing On….’ whatever it was until their angry neighbour came out and shouted abuse).

He then moved to XFM London “for approximately an hour” before being fired for going to the toilet on air in fellow presenter Dermot O’Leary’s desk drawer. Subsequently, the late-night Jon Holmes show on Virgin Radio ran from 2001 to 2002, but Holmes was fired after several controversial stunts. Virgin was fined a record £75,000 for Holmes’s feature “Swearing Radio Hangman for the Under-12s”, in which he persuaded a nine-year-old girl to spell out and then repeat the phrase “soapy tit wank”. Unrepentant, Holmes’s own website boasts: “Jon still holds the record for ‘largest fine ever for taste and decency offences in British broadcasting’. Sadly he didn’t get a certificate or anything.”

The format of the show was similar to satirist Chris Morris’s radio shows from the late 80s and early 90s. Heavily inspired themes include spoof news items, voiceovers and contributions from children, spoken words from various broadcasters and politicians cut up and re-edited into nonsense and a general subversive edginess very much in the Morris style.
