Dave Gorman, 11th November 2016"King of PowerPoint comedy" isn't a viciously contested mantle, but Gorman deserves praise for having mastered his craft.

Ben Dowell, Radio Times, 8th September 2015Dave Gorman interview
This takes about eight months of the year, four of those months are hell, and all the books have basically taken me six months to do, so there isn't a way of overlapping the two and I'm about to be a dad.
