About Jonathan Ross

Jonathan Ross is a cornerstone of British broadcasting, recognised for an illustrious career spanning several decades across television and radio. He first rose to prominence on The Last Resort and has since fronted some of the UK’s most significant programmes, including Saturday Zoo and the comedy quiz They Think It’s All Over. After eighteen successful series of Friday Night with Jonathan Ross on BBC One, where he secured three BAFTA awards for Best Entertainment Performance, he transitioned to lead The Jonathan Ross Show on ITV. His interviewing portfolio includes legendary figures such as Sir Paul McCartney, Madonna, and David Bowie. Beyond the interview sofa, Ross is a respected voice in cinema, having hosted the long-running Film series and reported from the Oscars. His versatility is further demonstrated through his work on BBC Radio 2, where his Saturday morning programme attracted three million listeners and earned four Sony Radio Awards. He remains a prominent fixture on modern television as a judge on The Masked Singer and has previously served as the host of the British Comedy Awards and the BAFTAs. In recognition of his substantial contributions to the broadcasting industry, he was appointed an OBE in 2005 and received a Special Recognition award at the 2012 National Television Awards.
