I'm Ivan Brackenbury the Hospital Radio DJ from Queen Elizabeth Hospital Radio [QUEHR] in Chesterfield, Derbyshire.
I first appeared as a character in the stand up comedy of Tom Binns in about 1992 after that I had my own show on BFBS [The Forces] every afternoon. My adventures as a member of the TA where a huge hit with the troops.
I've always kept my show, Disease Hour 6-7.15 on QUEHR regardless of what other opportunities have presented themselves in the world of media. e.g. my own show on BBC GLR and BBC London, regular slots on the Chris Evans Show and XFM, Guest spots on Steve Wright In The Afternoon and presenting the links for Channel 4 T Music.
I decided to tour my radio show in 2007 so everyone can enjoy it without the need to get ill in the Chesterfield Area. My roadshow captures all the fun and excitement of getting ill in hospital.
The show was nominated for the If.Comedy Award 2007 and won one of the prestigious Spirit of the Fringe Awards 2007. A man who writes for The Times thought it was the funniest show at the Fringe.
As a result I'm now planning my own Radio 2 Show.
I'm available for Weddings, Private Gigs and have been penciled into do two funerals - assuming the persons in question die before me - fingers crossed.
