SUMMARY:Rob Beckett: Giraffe
DESCRIPTION:Yes! Bobby Beckles is back on tour.  Smashing the life out of the M25\, M1\, M5 and any other road that’s in my way.

I think I’ll cope. \nWhat else is there to do? Sit next to your partner on the sofa scrolling TikTok in silence again?  You did that the last three nights. See you there! \nHost of Sky’s Rob Beckett’s Smart TV and Rob & Romesh Vs. He’s also the unmistakable voice of Channel 4’s Celebs Go Dating and the smash-hit podcast Parenting Hell.

He has recently been seen starring in Sally Wainwright’s Renegade Nell (Disney+) and Steven Moffat’s Douglas Is Cancelled (ITV).
