Richard Herring used to be one half of the criminally underrated nineties double act Lee & Herring, and now is a successful standup comedian, writer and broadcaster. He has been in the news recently over his latest show - Hitler Moustache - which has been wrongly accused of promoting racist themes (it is actually completely the opposite).

He also records a weekly podcast with journalist Andrew Collins (available free on i-tunes or www.sitcom.co.uk) which is basically just the two of them sitting in Richard's attic, riffing on whatever comes into their heads and commenting on the news - it's often very funny (but those easily offended by swears may wish to avoid)

Herring mentioned in a recent podcast that he really liked Just a Minute and wished he could appear on the show - it seems his wishes have been granted!
