When Allan was little, he hoped to be a footballer. But, like many things in 'Brutal Bootle', that dream was quickly demolished. Thoughts of God never got beyond Mr Godson's classroom, until his future mother-in-law insisted church attendance was a condition of dating the lovely Joyce. Faced with that ultimatum, he went along.

I didn't ask for any of this…

Especially not becoming the church minister! But when a throw-away comment landed Allan on the stage of a comedy club, everything changed. He found his calling. Somewhere he could make a difference. Something he was good at. So good that he ended up on Britain's Got Talent.

I didn't ask for any of this…

Especially not the terminal cancer diagnosis.
