On a recent episode of The Jonathan Ross Show, comedian Tom Allen couldn’t contain his excitement as he discussed his role on The Apprentice: You’re Fired. Being in the position to meet the fired candidates from the show, Tom found it both thrilling and challenging. He couldn’t help but feel sorry for them, even if they made some remarkably stupid choices. Tom felt it was his job to lighten the mood and celebrate their journey, while also adding his own comedic flair.
During the conversation, Tom also revealed his fondness for Lord Alan Sugar, explaining that he found him to be a charming and lovely man. Despite the initial nerves of meeting him for the first time, Tom managed to make a lasting impression. On the show, their natural chemistry and friendship were evident, as they bantered and shared lighthearted moments.
While Tom’s career may revolve around comedy and entertainment, his personal life is filled with a touch of the ordinary. He made headlines for still living with his parents, a decision he made to save up for his own place. However, with the uncertainty in the political climate, he found himself staying with them longer than expected. Surprisingly, Tom has capitalized on this situation, incorporating his living arrangements into his comedy routine.
Living with his parents has its perks, though, as Tom’s parents often invite him to their friends’ parties. One memorable event was at their friend Joyce’s house. Joyce had recently renovated her downstairs toilet and decided to throw a party to show it off. However, an online shopping mishap resulted in an excessive amount of ham and only a single bag of salad. The situation provided Tom with plenty of material for his jokes.
Despite Tom’s distinct speaking style, he actually comes from a fairly ordinary, working-class background. Both his parents worked regular jobs, with his dad being a coach driver and his mom working in the army and navy. Tom’s unique voice and mannerisms have always set him apart, and he recalls being sent off by his mom as a child to impress strangers with his unique way of speaking.
Tom took a while to achieve certain milestones, such as passing his driving test. His dad attempted to teach him, but Tom struggled initially. However, he eventually succeeded with the help of his driving instructor, Simon, who he proudly thanks for his achievement. Tom humorously shares an anecdote about stalling the engine at traffic lights, much to the annoyance of a BMW driver behind them.
All in all, Tom Allen‘s appearance on The Jonathan Ross Show was a testament to his comedic talent and ability to find humor in everyday situations. His enthusiasm, charm, and unique perspective continue to captivate audiences, both on talk shows and through his stand-up comedy. With each appearance, Tom remains unforgettable and leaves viewers eagerly awaiting his next hilarious adventure.
